Hi :) A dev might have more joy with the very functional GMane interface rather than the gui prettiness of Nabble.
Even so i think this list is too high-volume to be data-mined for the required information and anyway it's extremely rare that specific bug reports are referenced either by name (however vague and inaccurate) or number. Where threads do mention bug-report numbers it's done in a very inconsistent way, sometimes as part of a url sometimes with or without a # (as in bug #blah) and sometimes just the number so you would have had to be following the thread to realise it was a bug-report number. That might all sound very negative but this list is mainly trying to solve problems partly to avoid people having to post bug-reports. Often answers here will be work-arounds or explain quirks or why things work slightly differently in LO than other products a new users might have used previously. It's very rare that people ask a question here that results in a bug-report getting posted and even then it's usually a feature request or wish-list item. So, although i think your idea to try to do a bit of data-mining is good i think it's impractical for this list and that Michael Meeks handled it best by just asking for people to list specific examples. Good luck all and much appreciated Regards from Tom :) --- On Fri, 17/8/12, V Stuart Foote <vstuart.fo...@utsa.edu> wrote: From: V Stuart Foote <vstuart.fo...@utsa.edu> Subject: RE: [libreoffice-users] Re: Excuse me, but your opinion is simplyunimportant.

But often no additional details of the bug in the discussion. But, that said, the threads are pretty descriptive. Being a new subscriber, maybe the Nabble web interface would be of use to efficiently identify substantive issues that may have associated bugs. http://nabble.documentfoundation.org/Users-f1639498.html Stuart ________________________________ From: Michael Meeks [mailto:michael.me...@suse.com] Sent: Thu 8/16/2012 11:50 AM <snip> One thing that frustrates me, since I've only just subscribed is that we seem to be talking about a load of bugs with no numbers I can easily lookup. I'd greatly appreciate it if some kind soul could scrape the thread in their mailbox for a list of bug links to the most significant issues and aggregate them in a single mail - so I can go and triage them. <snip> -- For unsubscribe instructions e-mail to: users+h...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted -- For unsubscribe instructions e-mail to: users+h...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
