Later today there'll be a mass assignee ping for Bugzilla.
Couldn't we use another method than this? Like using Bugzilla's native
whining feature, or an equivalent where each assignee only get
notified of his assigned bugs in a single mail listing those?
Yes, that would be a lot better.
I understood that feature was disabled to solve bug 1932

Ok, but there a daily reminder is nonsense.
Maybe it works better in upgraded Bugzilla :)
A monthly (or every 2 months) reminder of bugs fitting in your above
query would sound sane, if it's sent only to the assignee. If not,
then the whole mass ping itself should not be done either.
Waiting one month to find out whether a bug was assigned correctly is
too long, in my opinion, unless the assignee is busy gathering enough
information to be able to tell.
I think we should ping bug reports for which we haven't got a
confirmation that the assignment was correct after two weeks, except
when the assignee shows activity in the report.
If the assignee thinks the bug was assigned correctly, he can put OK on
the whiteboard or set status to ASSIGNED, and he won't show up in this
search again, so he won't be pinged for this reason again.
