Sounds interesting :-) Unfortunately the timing is bad for me - at this time I'll probably be busy with grape harvest...
* Seperate openSUSE bugzilla Not all are happy with the openSUSE bugzilla. We had a discussion about pros and cons for having a seperate instance for openSUSE. - Federico: as for me, I'll heartily recommend not having a separate/different bug tracker - it's a major pain in the ass. We had that situation in bugzilla.ximian.com and an internal bug tracker, and it sucks big rocks - yaloki: Novell Bugzilla sucks big rocks for non-novell employees and the unnecessary complexity of bugzilla might put off people to file bugs - our Bugzilla is just too complicated + ichain is not appreciated by some people - get rid of ichain, Lauch pad might be a possibillity -> move to email discussion
You you please give some details about which problems you see with the Novell bugzilla? The most important problem from my POV is the missing/locked user lookup for non-Novell people which is probably solvable [1]. What other problems do you see? What's the problem with iChain? IMHO it's "just" a login method and not a problem. What do I overlook? And, more important, what would be the replacement? BTW: I agree with Federico that a separate bugtracker will probably cause lots of headache and split the bugs across even more places. (I already have enough bugtracker accounts at different places - openSUSE/Novell, Sourceforge, several bugtrackers of upstream projects. Can someone please invent bugtracking.all-software.org? ;-)) Regards, Christian Boltz [1] ask for bug numbers, details and my ideas if you want, but I'd prefer to have a non-technical discussion for now ;-) -- Jedes Update mitzumachen finde ich sinnfrei.
