I understand you position warly on the use of bugzilla, I've had to use similar (though far simpler) troublshooting tools during beta periods for our OC48 Packet Over Sonet Cards we were designing at Nortel. The idea though was to ensure that, as Ben said, the people who need the information get it. If I'm troubleshooting a problem, which is largely unlikely as I'm no expert, I only need to be concerned with the problem. If I'm ready to solve a new one, I need to be able to see what's currently out there to solve, and pick it up.
The big thing is I don't need to see that someone made a bugzilla entry status change. If an individual is interested in following the various bugzilla issues then they should follow it at bugzilla and not through an email list. I don't want to see bugzilla go at this point, as apparently it is being used, however there must be a better atlernative then how it is currently being handled. The final note is this. You, Warly et Mandrakesoft, are in charge of this list. Though I appreciate that our concerns (eg the community ) are being listend to, in the end you make the policy, not us. If you choose to leave bugzilla as it is, then we will all just have to accept it or move on. (PS: I appologize for the bad spelling... I'm not feeling so well and my spell check is shot) -- Nelson Bartley <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
