I agree with Berker on this -- adding new keywords and components makes the tracker harder to use. With more fields it is more difficult to find/select/understand all the right options while triaging and reviewing issues. This might also lead to incomplete/incorrect classification. When adding new keywords/components we should always evaluate if the benefits (better classification/easier search) outweigh this cost (UI cluttering/worse UX). We have discussed in the past ways to address the UI/UX problem, such as tags or separate "triaging" (with all the fields/options) and "read-only" (with only the selected fields/options) views. Until these are implemented I would prefer to err on the conservative side while adding new components/keywords. ---------- nosy: +ezio.melotti _______________________________________________________ PSF Meta Tracker <metatrac...@psf.upfronthosting.co.za> <http://psf.upfronthosting.co.za/roundup/meta/issue605> _______________________________________________________ _______________________________________________ Tracker-discuss mailing list Tracker-discuss@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tracker-discuss Code of Conduct: https://www.python.org/psf/codeofconduct/
