[gentoo-dev] [RFC] Bugzilla enhancements wrt AT work

[Torsten Rehn]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 903 bytes --]

Two weeks ago, dirtyepic suggested making some modifications to how ATs and 
developers interact using Bugzilla [1].

<+jakub> scel: basically... instead of KEYWORDREQ/STABLEREQ
<+jakub> create keywording and stabilization components
<+jakub> and use flags accordingly there
<+jakub> bugzilla already has the features, why not use them
<+jakub> also, nuke things like TESTED and STABLE

This is trivial to implement and would greatly improve the ability to search 
for {STABLE,KEYWORD}REQs that have been tested by ATs. All ATs I've spoken to 
(most of the active ones at amd64) would really appreciate this change.

Discuss.

Also notice bug 213514 [2] for actual progress on this.

Just curious, who would be the default assignee for those 2 new components?

/me will vote for whatever helps to improve Gentoo :)

I don't think anything should be changed here. Unpriviledged users 
automatically assign to bug-wranglers, everyone else goes for the target 
packages' maintainer.
Do you see any problem with this?

Nope, none at all, just wondering if anything were to change there.

As the Bugzilla admin, this sounds reasonable, and it plays into some of
my plans wrt to Bugzilla3. In that, depending on some bits with Bugzie3,
I'd like to consider a radical re-arrangement of Products and
Components, to help users find the right place to file stuff, and also
reduce some of the needless complexity that we have.

As a short-list quickly on products:
- Demote the 'Bugzilla' product down to a component under the
  'Infrastructure' product.
- Demote 'Mirrors' to a component under 'Infrastructure'.
- Promote the components under 'Gentoo Hosted Projects' to Products of
  their own, to enable them to have their own components (I can see
  several of them benefiting from this).
- Merge the Admin product to the Infrastructure product.

Beyond the product stuff, I have a tracker bug here for the Bugzilla3
migration:
http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=213782
If you have a feature request, open a bug, and link it to the tracker.

The bugstest.g.o side will go up soon either with Bugzilla3.0.3 or a CVS
snapshot of 3.2 (which was supposed to have a release candidate already,
but isn't available yet).

Can you add deleting the "Security" component in the "Gentoo Linux" 
product to that list?


Thanks,
