As + consequence we need to have an easy interface (webui and osc) to find + out the responsible person or team for a given package. The user should just be able to enter a package name or a disturl to find the right person. OBS always needs a project and package context to find the bugowner or maintainer. Therefore we need to specify a default project to search in. The following UI and workflow is suggested: UI offers just a text field beside a combo box. The combo box is set to the default marked project (eg. openSUSE:Factory). Aftwards also all maintenance_release projects shall be listed. Last but not least maybe an option to specify any other project. The UI shall check if it finds a source package container with the given name. If this fails it should search via binarie search. The returned project/package container needs to be checked for a devel area. The UI shows first defined bugowner if defined or maintainer as fall back. Business case (Partner benefit): openSUSE.org: Obsolete PDB. + Discussion: + #1: Adrian Schröter (adriansuse) (2012-11-06 11:55:25) + We have a discussion about this on thursday, 08 Nov 2012 in room Paris + at 14:00.
