+1 Having a virtual account for each component is good idea. Peoples could watch these virtual accounts according to their interesting and don't require admin to adjust component setting. But there are some problems as you described in the thread: http://lists.meego.com/pipermail/meego-qa/2011-June/001859.html 1) Not all components have the virtual accounts in cc list and create virtual account & adjust component setting one by one are really a boring manual task; 2) End user is not easy to get the virtual accounts for components they are going to watch; So my proposal to improve this is to supplement the virtual accounts for all components and publish the components' watchable virtual accounts at meego.com wiki. If no one is willing to do such boring manual task, I can volunteer myself to take care of it by composing some half-automatic script :-) Thanks Shuang _______________________________________________ MeeGo-qa mailing list [email protected] http://lists.meego.com/listinfo/meego-qa
