As you can see from Trac, I have a lot of items (RFEs and otherwise) with some very old open dates.
https://fedorahosted.org/cobbler/report/1?sort=created&asc=1 Why is this you ask? Basically I am me, and I do not scale as hugely as I would like :) This applies mostly to RFEs -- I do look after smashing major bugs, but I am not the fastest about squashing little nits here and there, and leave that to everyone. So lots of ideas pile up -- I'll always be working on either the biggest badest bug or the shiniest most useful feature, and the smaller good ideas will always be at the bottom of the pile. This means, simply, I think those ideas are not the most important at any given time. Currently my focus is the 2.0 release -- which means background tasks and lots of things designed to make it easier for everyone to hack on Cobbler (yes, this means you! The vision behind Cobbler is to be the community deployment tool we all share, versus having to recreate one from scratch at every datacenter across the globe, and it relies on your contributions to be that.) The 2.0 release should include some bugfixes -- and I have two things I want to fix in mind -- replicate needs to grok UIDs, and imports of Fedora from older systems need to use the right SHA parameters. So, bottom line ... I may be closing lots of small feature requests as "wontfix". If you would like these fixed, it is not personal, just pragmatic ... send a patch. I will keep open the things I do want to hack on, though is mostly a statement of focus/bandwith. There are a lot of nice to haves, but not all of them will be implemented, and I need to keep track of just the ones we are going to be working on. Again, if you really want something, send a patch! This is your app, and the analogy of the Little Red Hen applies (unless, of course, you are a customer of mine... in which case, ignore this, and a sincere thanks!) Also, I'll be closing SuSE and Debian bugs as Wontfix -- though efforts to encourage Debian support and such are happening from volunteers, I'm not working on them, and the people who ARE working on them don't read Trac. The proper place to discuss non RH-based OS support is the development mailing list.
