Hi gang -
I just noticed why Gary thought this bug had not been updated
on b.o.o. for nearly 2 years: the time stamps are being stripped
from the Description as well as the email address. (thus you
cannot tell where one entry ends and the next begins).
see this CR for an example:
http://bugs.opensolaris.org/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6661895
is this a known issue?

Looking through the code this looks like a feature and was done
intentionally.
Hi Bill -
Can you please provide more feedback? The removal of timestamps
makes the bugs unreadable. If someone really feels that confidential
data would be leaked by the timestamps, than at *least* leave
the delimiters there, so that people looking at the bug will know
that the note was modified at a different time (and likely by
a different person). as it is now, they all run together in
a very confusing manner.
Thank you,
Valerie
Our group inherited the BOO code earlier this year. It was originally written
by contractors in another group and was based on bugs.sun.com. There is
essentially no documentation or historical information available about the
code or why choices were made. I agree with you that filtering out dates
doesn't make much sense; I was simply pointing out that the behavior you
noticed was implemented as a feature.
I'm sorry, the way I read that was that your team decided
on this behaviour. Of course, I don't expect you to have
knowledge of all the decisions made by another team long
ago :)
If you feel this behavior should be changed, please file an RFE on
defect.opensolaris.org. But note that resources are not available to work on
this application soon.

thank you,
