When I said "original design proposal" I was talking about the one we wrote for the job page improvements earlier this year, where we had some quite ambitions plans for expanding ack/nak/comments. We decided not to tackle those for now. As for the original design of the ack/nak system... Yes I think that BZ is all we have. It was implemented a long time ago, before we were writing up our designs. > > * The distinction between "needs review" and "ack" does not seem useful > > so it will be removed.

Hmm interesting. We hadn't thought of either of those scenarios. As for the second point, keeping track of what you have reviewed... Gerrit has quite a nice simple system for that, which we could take some inspiration from. Each file in the patch has a little checkbox "Reviewed" which is unticked by default. It's ticked automatically when you first view each file. And you can toggle them on or off explicitly as well, to mark where you are up to in the review. Or you can just ignore them. We could do something similar. The job page could have a checkbox for each recipe. We would record each user's "reviewed" status for each recipe. When you open the recipe page we mark it as reviewed automatically, or you can tick or untick the checkbox explicitly. Something like this: https://fedorapeople.org/~dcallagh/screenshot-new-job-page-reviewed-checkboxes.png Then waiving and commenting would still be a separate operation. The "reviewed" check boxes might be more generally useful even when not waiving results too. However it doesn't solve the first thing you mentioned, where multiple people are reviewing a single job. Does that happen often? I feel like it's maybe a situation that we can't really handle well anyway. -- Dan Callaghan <dcall...@redhat.com> Senior Software Engineer, Products & Technologies Operations Red Hat, Inc.
