That makes some sense. get_maintainer could then parse mailto: and http: schemes and could do the right thing. ___ Intel-gfx mailing list Intel-gfx@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/intel-gfx

I'd also like to encourage people to add URLs like https://bugzilla.kernel.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=ACPI&component=BIOS here to immediately lead the bug reporter to the correct product and component in the bug tracker.

I meant the word "List" verbatim as a keyword, indicating the bugs should be reported to the list specified by "L:". > Maybe there could be something like the "T:" and "S:" > entries where some additional qualifier is used for the > specific type of bug reporting. Maybe we can have a kernel summit session about this, and maybe have a patch merged by mid-2017.

Yeah, if B: is present, use the given URL for bug reporting.
