For example, we still review on darcs-users, exactly as before. Hopefully in the future, DarcsWatch will automatically make the association between patches (patch bundles) and patch numbers and somehow be able to tell roundup that the patch is accepted. Otherwise, you can use the bcc trick to kill two birds with one stone (update people and update the tracker) > Using the patch tracker > ----------------------- > * To see a list of unassigned patches: click on 'Show Unassigned' > in the left hand sidebar. This is now 'Show Open' and also shows the assigned patches (and who they are assigned to) > - Reply to says "Darcs bug tracker" (which looks weird) This is easy to fix; but you'll have to modify roundup itself (mailgw) in addition to our parameterisation. We ought to get to this someday because it can cause some confusion. How to tweak the tracker ------------------------ There are bound to be lots of little behavioural quirks and UI changes to make. If you'd like to help, just darcs get http://darcs.net/darcs-bugtracker This should contain most of our config settings, our UI templates and our issue tracker schema. Just a tiny bit of Python hacking and the Python TAL language for the UI. If I can do it, so can you :-) Patch manager needed -------------------- Finally, we still need a human being to stay on top of the patches, assign them and nag as appropriate. Having a patch tracker helps, and would especially useful for the manager but as we're still limping along without a real human being to do the job. We're "hiring"! -- Eric Kow <http://www.nltg.brighton.ac.uk/home/Eric.Kow> PGP Key ID: 08AC04F9
