Right, there's little hope of automating such a thing. Some people have to actually check the issue reports on GH and review them. Many will probably tend to be duplicates which can be closed quickly. I would just see it as an extension of the bug reports that come through sage-devel. If it were me, I'd be filtering them all into one bucket. Others, if they find GH issues to add too much noise, can ignore/unsubscribe from them. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-devel" group.
