Could we lock projects that are unmaintained (and set all bug reports to unmaintained, too)? > - product spelling inconsistent (upcase-downcase-somecase) > - product name has zero relationship to ANYTHING (can be made up > https://bugs.kde.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=Active or the repo name > https://bugs.kde.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=blinken or have a prefix > https://bugs.kde.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=frameworks-kdewebkit or a > project can also be a component in another product > https://bugs.kde.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=Breeze&component=Icons) Hm, like with calligra, there's calligra-common, words, plan etc. as separate products with their own components.

Me neither... But that's more because I have to triage about a 1000 bug reports a year, and many of them are not bug reports at all, but support questions. I like it that bugzilla + phabricator means there's a two-stage system: one where users enter their reports, which I then filter and create phabricator tasks for other team members. > Not being able to file a bug because I can't find the product is so > very frustrating and sad. > > Can we please establish a workflow so that every project we run has a > bugzilla product with suitable name (step for sysadmins when creating > new repos)? That should work in most cases... I guess, but not in all. -- Boudewijn Rempt | https://www.valdyas.org | https://www.krita.org
