fair enough > We just want to have users think we care a bit about them. is that different from actually caring about them? (or am I confusing companies?) > How about "Conflicting updates detected"? Maybe. There might be (and probably will only have been) one update, and it might or might not conflict (see blurb when you get there). The most basic non conflicting form is a comment. And whether things are really considered updates, I dunno.... (I spend a measurable amount of time wordsmithing, both for my employer [my project and all the others I see], and for projects including Bugzilla and I really haven't solved this one). > (Why can't the message just say what happened?) Bugzilla (and most software, except Apple's) needs to have titles for windows (and web pages). As such, it needs something short and concise. The rest of the page really does show what happened. Anyway, there are some test bugs in your Bugzilla, steps: 1. load http://defect.opensolaris.org/bz/show_bug.cgi?id=3&GoAheadAndLogIn=1 2. (log in) 3. enter "test" into the whiteboard 4. open a new window 5. in the new window, load http://defect.opensolaris.org/bz/show_bug.cgi?id=3 6. in the first window, commit your changes 7. in the second window add yourself to the cc list 8. commit your changes you should now have a midair message. _______________________________________________ tools-discuss mailing list [email protected]
