Generally speaking it seems that, in particular for long-lived branches, an MP is the best thing to link to, since it represents a specific landing with a more restrictive intent. I find myself more interested in an MP for a branch than the actual branch (if the MP exists). This doesn't suggest that the MP is what you need to link to, though -- just that the information should be rendered and linked if an MP exists. > > * If we had a "Find possible duplicates of this bug" feature, where > > would it go? > > Haven't given that any thought, but I'd say on a different page, > linked from the right-hand column. Or it could just pop up an AJAX widget. -- Christian Robottom Reis | [+55 16] 3376 0125 | http://launchpad.net/~kiko | [+55 16] 9112 6430 | http://async.com.br/~kiko _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~launchpad-dev Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~launchpad-dev More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
