Where are these credits for one person visible? ChangeLogs? Somewhere else? Any examples (URLs) of existing practice? Same with "some statistics" that you wrote earlier. Where are these statistics currently visible for me? Or are they just for some internal usage? > > > Yes, we discussed the keyword.

That's the worst that you can do as it creates mistrust and intransparency... > I don't think *ALL* decisions needs to be made in public ways. I agree that decisions do not have to be made in public for topics that imply confidentiality. However default policy in an open source upstream project MUST be to discuss non-confidential stuff in public *before* deploying it. Do you agree with this? If so, what was confidential about discussing the introduction of a "Triaged by" field in public? > It is true that "triaged by" is not a perfect string.

You can avoid such "unfriendlyness" in the future by discussing the addition of a field in public BEFORE somebody actually starts using it. ;-) andre -- Andre Klapper (maemo.org bugmaster) http://www.openismus.com _______________________________________________ MeeGo-qa mailing list MeeGo-qa@lists.meego.com http://lists.meego.com/listinfo/meego-qa
