I'm not real sure how to do so; ideas from others would be welcome. For those interested in helping or coming up with some ideas, here's some verbose details about where it is used and additional abilities that are available: It's actually linked to from http://live.gnome.org/GnomeLove, but probably rather poorly. I say that, because I was the one who put the link there, but have gone back a couple times looking for it only to miss it and think it's been deleted or something and think I even once only finally noticed when I went to edit the page and put it "back in". Normal flow of that page for anyone just skimming seems to make people skip it, or at least does that to me. I don't think there's any additional places to link to it in bugzilla, and that few would find it if we put it in most other places there anyway. It does happen to be linked from http://bugzilla.gnome.org/page.cgi?id=reports.html (which is linked to from "reports" at the top of any bugzilla page) and from the product overview page (e.g. http://bugzilla.gnome.org/browse.cgi?product=metacity, though limited to that particular product) in the column at the right -- but most beginners aren't probably going to think to look in either place if they think to look in bugzilla at all. One unused feature is that we do have an RSS version of this report available; http://bugzilla.gnome.org/reports/keyword-search-rss.cgi?keyword=gnome-love. It was actually requested by Bryan Clark to give things more prominence but neither he nor we seem to have a good place to link to that RSS feed from. (and I'm not totally sure it makes sense as an RSS feed with things being shuffled in order as patch states or bug status changes and such, but then again I just don't know much about RSS). _______________________________________________ gnome-love mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-love
