Comment (by mrenzmann):
I don't think it's generally a bad idea to post tickets based on anyone's
mailing list postings. We already had cases where an issue was worked out
on the mailing list, and taking over parts of the discussion to a ticket
made sense in order to keep track of that particular issue in our main bug
tracking facility. This way things won't get lost, and it's easier to
follow what the current status of the reported issue is - which was one of
the arguments that made us moving away from the mailing lists as facility
to track bug reports.
On the other hand I agree that we should take care to only file only
detailed postings as a ticket. The resulting ticket should have enough
information inside so that others are able to understand the actual
problem and eventually could pick up working on it.
Bottom line: nothing dramatically bad happened here IMO. We didn't detail
this before, so we do now. No need to scale down involement (for both
sides), do you agree?
