Actually there was already https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/malone/+bug/283539 (affects 33 people :-) > Also, the hope is that bug heat will be more than just a cumulative > affected users count.

That does make sense, and if the main outcome of it is a tasteful little badge that's always present on the bug I can imagine it would gradually infuse your awareness in a useful way. > I do think we are trying to do what serves our users best, but the > bugs app has a wide range of users, often with competing interests. Yes, I think you've been doing great work, and better this cycle than before. Thanks for explaining the bug heat stuff and listening to my thoughts on it. -- Martin <http://launchpad.net/~mbp/> _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~launchpad-dev Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~launchpad-dev More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
