The last time I looked there I saw so many topposting and HTML postings that I ran away. As long as the people agree that this is allowed (either by really allowing it, or by not doing anything about it) I won't go there. > and the bugfix of stable release is still not clear for me. > I undertood that security fixes will be done very fast, but > what kind of bug will be fixed and what will not? Security fixes are done. Others are not done. There will be some exeptions, but it is a pretty good rule of thumb. This has been explained a few times already. Also the idea why has been explained. > the inst-source folder is frozen fromm the beginning, YOU > update is for security... what about bugfixes? Unless they are security fixes, they won;t be done. e.g. the slower transfer rate for USB in 10.0 has a solution, yet as it is not a security issue, it won't be implemented. > bugzilla is a good tool, but I can't send there anybody > because I was years before being able to use it myself Sure you can. An example: USB Speed: https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=105871 comments 19, 41 and 50-53 People have been pointed there and have solved their issue. Indeed some are not able to use Bugzilla (or don't want to) they will have to ask solutions in suse-linux-e. They are asking for solutions. To me they are not reporting bugs and that was what you were talking about. > Could it be usefull to have a namespace/main page on the > wiki for following the bugs? > > I mean that most wontfix bugs are minor or have a > workaround. may be these should stay in the wiki in a > visible place for new users. Aside from Most Anoying Bugs? No. There are just too many. -- houghi http://houghi.org http://www.plainfaqs.org/linux/ http://www.netmeister.org/news/learn2quote.html > > Today I went outside.
