I don't think we've discussed it anywhere yet (unless I mentioned it
to Ezio on IRC), but there are some issues around dependency display
that could conceivably be handled downstream. The main one is showing
which bugs a given bug is *blocking* - that is, those which depend on
the bug you're currently looking at.

Another nice-to-have from my perspective would be the ability to add a
new comment without having to scroll back to the top of the
discussion.

Unfortunately, I suspect those would also qualify as being projects
best tackled under the Roundup banner, and I don't think it would be
Nope.  Both of those are instance-only modifications, not core Roundup.
The 'dependencies' field doesn't even exist in the stock roundup
instance template.

Comment box at the bottom has been previously suggested and was
rejected in favor of hotkeys that let you scroll back and forth easily.
I think that decision could be revisited, though.

FTR, you can press 'r' (for reply) to jump to the reply box at the
top, 'esc' to unfocus it, and 'l' (lowercase L, for last) to jump to
the last message.
There are other shortcuts that you can see by pressing '?' or by
clicking 'Keyb. shortcuts (?)' at the end of the sidebar.  Note that
these shortcuts only work in the issues pages.
I almost never use hotkeys beyond Ctrl-C/Ctrl-X/Ctrl-V - if something
doesn't have a GUI element associated with it, it generally doesn't
exist as far as I'm concerned :)

I did just remember another small item though - hooking up searching
by Real Name in addition to Username when adding someone to the nosy
list (not everyone uses the first.last naming convention for their
username, especially if they have an already established username
they're bringing over from other services)

   * since some of the Roundup devs said they would be available to
help, one option would be to find a core Python mentor for this
project (Nick?) and then the student can still interact with the
Roundup guys (including me) and get help from other devs as well.
I'm already trying to figure out how to gracefully hand at least some
of my current projects over to other people, so I won't be
volunteering for anything new any time soon :)

Cheers,
Nick.

So as a student, if I'm writing a proposal to the project I should just mark it as bug tracker improvements and fixes? It just seem a little hard to point to very specific goals to complete, and the project would gain more goals and task goes by. I don't have any problem with it, I'm a very play by ear person so that works for me, I just don't want the project proposal to look to thin because not all the ideas are fleshed out yet
