Bug#444121: bugs.debian.org: Acknowledgement mail could include link to web interface

2007-09-26 Thread Marc Fargas
Package: bugs.debian.org
Severity: wishlist

Hi,
For people that send a bug report by the very first time when they receive the
acknowledgement mail they are provided with ways extend the bug report and
even close it. But they're not told two things:

- You will receive any follow-up messages to yours.
- You can check the status of this bug report and any following comments
  on the bugs.debian.org website:
http://bugs.debian.org/$your_bugno

At least the second one could be added to the acknowledgement template, that
would tell the user that bug reports do not fall on a black hole but that
they're public and that he/she can always see how the bug is.

Just 0.02 ;)
Marc

This isn't true, actually. [Though fixing this is in my todo list.]

 - You can check the status of this bug report and any following comments
   on the bugs.debian.org website:
 http://bugs.debian.org/$your_bugno

And this bug has already been filed; merging them together. (Though it
is a good idea.)

Sorry for any inconvenience, I didn't spot #9596 (I checked
bugs.debian.org package not debbugs) ;(

Cheers,
Marc
