Yeah, please can people discuss such policy changes on -devel first? Or at least tell us. I read http://owu.towers.org.uk/planets/koha/ most days, but not everyone does. What's the point of changing policy silently? It's not going to change how we work and you'll get deservedly flamed if you try to slap us for breaking a secret policy. > I fully agree with the idea of pointing the bug if there is one.

However, there should be some tool trying to update bugs automatically on patch-mail and head commit (maybe from /bug\s+(\d+)/ on the commit message). TTLLP also has an internal work tracker (RT), but we can link from the "Refers to" field to bugs.koha.org - I'm trying to be better at doing that for all our koha bugs as soon as we're reasonably confident it's not a local configuration error. The flames from LibLimeys if I patch a bug they've not experienced yet are *not* encouraging this (TMPL_ELSIF MacOS X 10.5 unpredictability/unportability most recently) so I can understand why BibLibre feel it's too expensive.

Please let BibLibre forward bug reports in French and let's add babelfish links to the bug display page header or footer.

I learned about this a few days ago and was going to ask if we can do it here. It would make life much easier. Can we also allow koha users to submit new bugs by email without getting spammed to hell? It would help to make the bugs data more accurate and representative.
