Severity|blocker |major --- Comment #10 from Andre Klapper <[email protected]> --- In the meantime, I've set up email address regexes to let at least WMF/WMDE users automatically receive sufficient permissions. I'd love to extend this but doing this automatically requires email addresses as a criterion. (In reply to comment #2) > This bug seems like a classic blocker to me. When people are unable to > effectively and efficiently use Bugzilla, it blocks development work. The big majority of users can. Those users without "editbugs" permissions can ask and receive them (though we do not document how - that's something to change), or ask many other people to change some restricted fields in a bug report on behalf of them. This is inconvenient but does not "block development work" in general. Summary: I don't see a good way out of this situation. Giving editbugs to everybody did not work out in the past, giving it automatically to a subset of users via an email address regex cannot be applied here, giving it manually to a subset of users likely won't scale (though we should challenge the word "likely" here), and we currently cannot access user activity data from other infrastructure tools (e.g. "user has a Labs/Gerrit account so we trust in Bugzilla too"). -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
