Thats refreshing. ;) > JS, any server can handle it. > - Configuring it to report issues to Bugzilla, the configuration is simple [2] So these would be kernel bugs reported by an anonymous user? I don't think thats very ideal. Could result in a easy DDOS of bugzilla, and unless folks were careful to follow and cc themselves it would be hard to get additional information. Could it instead ask the user to go login to bugzilla and then populate a new bug with the info thats using the users existing auth? kevin -- _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe send an email to [email protected] 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/[email protected] Do not reply to spam, report it: https://forge.fedoraproject.org/infra/tickets/issues/new
