I'd say that delegation of authority isn't bugster's long suit. It was designed for an environment where there's a central IT group, and everyone has to work through them to make changes. On the plus side, this means that if someone is proposing a category that's questionable in nature (such as "other" or "generic" -- the sorts of no-zip-sorting-bins where bugs go to die -- or "foobar1.2" -- using extraneous version information), someone can clue in the proposer before too much damage is done. I think a more distributed approach (making category "owners" responsible for subcategories) would probably be more fitting for OpenSolaris. > * if the watched account is not a real person, there are ways for > people to recognize who is watching it (they're unfortunately spammy > since you create a new bug and restrict all the fields to you+it, > which leaves the db w/ an extra bug). Can you watch who is watching for watchers? ;-} -- James Carlson, Solaris Networking <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sun Microsystems / 35 Network Drive 71.232W Vox +1 781 442 2084 MS UBUR02-212 / Burlington MA 01803-2757 42.496N Fax +1 781 442 1677 _______________________________________________ tools-discuss mailing list tools-discuss@opensolaris.org
