Ok, that's it... I don't like this idea, it doesn't look like a solution but rather like an ugly work-around to me. I agree that some things should be handled outside bugzilla, but bugs belong to bugzilla. We already have a tool to track bugs, setting up another one wouldn't help reducing bugs, it'd rather cost us even more time (you have to check two sources for informations) and there will be more duplications. All in all, it looks like twice the effort for the same result to me. Regards, blubb -- Simon Stelling Gentoo/AMD64 Operational Co-Lead blubb@gentoo.org -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list
