Update of bugs #2107 (project savane):
Priority: C - Normal => E - Immediate
_______________________________________________________
Follow-up Comment #7:
- Previous versions of Savane didn't add initial user during project creation
in the history; in this case the group is not shown
(http://savannah.gnu.org/support/?func=detailitem&item_id=104021)
Can you submit a new report for this distinct bug: my opinion is that an
update script should be provided so this info is added in the database. Any
other solution would implies lowering the number of possibilities we have to
show data.
"I think the history information is meant to be used by humans rather than
machines. If you still want to use it, I suggest not to trust the results, and
only use it in addition to a more machine-readable way. In this case, we could
generate the project list using user_group, and then try to gather additional
information in the history. "
The purpose of the history information is quite unclear. If it was meant to be
used by humans, in many ways it badly designed.
In many case, we only have this. We should make sure the history data is
reliable. I'm sure there's a solution for all the problems you reported (a
distinct bug report should probably be made for each).
But you have a point when you said that, considering how reliable this table
content is, it is a bit risky to use it directly to gather main data.
I'd prefer avoiding using 300 SQL request instead of one. One idea would be to
do only 2 SQL: one with the history test, one without. If the number of rows
found is not equal, we use the one without history data and we print feedback
saying it was not possible to gather some data, incitating to report the
issue.
It is good that you brought this point now. I think this issue is blocker item
for the 1.0.6 release.
