Sorry, I repost the message here even if norsetto has already anwered but I think this is my day I push "reply" and not "reply to all" and gmail seems to be stupid when a ML is only in CC :) Great work Cesare. I was planning to do such a thing in the near futur, but you make it first :) The missing thing for me is to link to a bug that wait for sponsor (for instance, I have updated gnome-volume-manager, gnome-spell and it is waiting for sponsoring). Even if the sponsor time seems to be really short for desktop package (thanks to all of you!), it would be a pity if someone would double the effort: - Maybe making a "bugs linkage" or "updater" editable field? (like in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DesktopTeam/TODO) would avoid that. Making the field empty each time a new version appeared - or using the LP API to grep for bug title for this ubuntu package containg the sponsor + correct numbering version to automate this? What do you think about that? Once again, congrats for you work. I'm sure seb will appreciate :) Didier -- ubuntu-desktop mailing list ubuntu-desktop@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-desktop
