-- discussions that took place on and about the BugReports page


self choosen bug numers?

MarioSalzer: I refused to use the sf.net bug tracker, because the sf.net interfaces are to overloaded (sf ads layout everywhere) and annoying to me (w3m/lynx user). But should we use bug numbers for reference and archival use?

Instead of using a bug tracking software, we could simply invent the numbers ourselves (BUG#0304, WISH#5002) - not 100% clash safe, but at least a possibility. Eventually I could also write a bug report <form> especially for this page; seems easy.

Andy: Why don't we use aview_posts for this? We can enable it but not add it to the 'view' controls but instead reference it as a link (addpost/BugReports) only on this page. I'll extend it to let us hide closed bugs and eventually to move them to another page as we do now.

milky: The <form> already seems to work (that probably looks awful in Mozilla?), but does also not trigger the notify: plugin (like all workarounds). But I think that's only a matter of tighter integration...

Andy: It looks fine in Mozilla, but can we add a way to indicate that the bug exists in the current deployment to http://erfurtwiki.sourceforge.net ?
