Then open a reduced number of bugs, say one per portage category that=20 has over 20 bugs and group the rest in a one or 2 other bug reports. Then bug wranglers can start sifting through the list to see if you've=20 been smoking crack or not and add relevant herds/arch teams/maintainers=20 as CC to those bugs to get them fixed. I've done this before on a much smaller scale (20+ packages) and others=20 have too for other issues (eg. Flameeyes with WANT_AUTO* which started=20 out as a huge list of 100+ packages) and this process has always worked=20 fine so far. > To build my previous list, I took about 30 > minutes, it's not that big, but even that small. > So, what I just wanted to try to build up is a fast lane. Bugzilla is still the fastest lane around. We're not the LKML, bugzilla=20 _is_ our primary tool. > When I say "I don't have time", it means that I can't waste my time > fighting with some of you just because you have the knife in your hand > and like to make fun of me. Honestly, this is borderline paranoia. Most of us get bug reports from=20 people we've never heard of, living in countries we've never been to,=20 with ages and social backgrounds that we don't even know (or care) about. And I have yet to see a Gentoo dev closing a bug as=20 WONTFIXBECAUSEIDONTLIKEYOU. :) > BTW, It's funny to see the difference of attitudes from here and IRC, > let me underline that :) So this is a neutral ground. I'll add that Bugzilla is also very neutral, even more so than mailing=20 lists AFAICS. Cheers, R=E9mi --=20 gentoo-dev@lists.gentoo.org mailing list
