The first is that each custom field requires a distinct click on the field's save button. Since the workflow makes heavy use of custom fields, this is annoying and could result in losing data. This is filed upstream: https://github.com/taigaio/taiga-front/issues/1029 The second is that custom fields are not available when creating issues. You have to create the issue and then edit it to set the custom fields. This is less bad, since most wiki-based change proposals are edited multiple times anyway, but along with the previous issue adds an extra level of annoyance. This is filed upstream: https://github.com/taigaio/taiga-front/issues/608 Both of these issues are avoided by submitting issues via the API. Manas (pac23), who spent this summer working on tooling for this proposal, included this functionality in the tool. However, I don't expect that all contributors will use the tool to submit change proposals. The current state of the web UI is sufficient to make this more annoying than I want the process to be. I still like the principles behind this proposal, and if the upstream issues are fixed (or if another suitable platform comes along), I will revisit it. In the meantime, we'll continue using the current wiki workflow. -- Ben Cotton He / Him / His Fedora Program Manager Red Hat TZ=America/Indiana/Indianapolis _______________________________________________ devel-announce mailing list -- devel-announce@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to devel-announce-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel-announce@lists.fedoraproject.org
