Triaging the bug list isn't a bad idea, either.

I'm pretty sure Wm is suggesting scrubbing BZ.

Wm,

Since the website (and news) is all in git; would you care to work on a
patch-set that cleans it up and propose a PR against the gnucash-htdocs
repo?

[GNC-dev] buglist needs tidying

2019-04-03 Thread Wm via gnucash-devel
I know I am not the favourite person here, however, some things need to 
be said.


The "known issues" list at http://gnucash.org/news.phtml is a mess and 
needs tidying.


There are a number of duplicate reports.  They don't help anyone because 
each of the reporting individuals is left thinking their problem isn't 
being attended to.  I know they are being attended to or at least 
considered in some cases, they should be brought together.  I think 
triage is required rather than divide and rule.


There is more than one substantive issue in the buglist (and I don't 
mean the issues I have raised).  What should the priorities be?  Should 
the dev effort be directed to the interface or the actual?


I'll leave it at that, if this gets to be published take a look at some 
of the things on the list and try to work out which ones you think are 
significant.  I'm not arguing for populism, I'm saying we should think 
about what the gnc priorities are, merge some of them together and see 
if we have some direction after that.


I repeat, I know I have upset many people here but ...
