That made me go to some bugs I experienced at the beginning, and look if they were thus fixed or not.

The funny thing is that it is happening on gerrit.wikimedia.org but not on https://gerrit-review.googlesource.com or https://android-review.googlesource.com So although they may be very responsive to patches, it may not be so easy to get the bugs solved (other than doing so ourselves, which as said, is not simple). > Just as a minor nitpick--those dashboards aren't meant to be viewed > by anyone other than the author themselves (which is why it's the > main page when you login, as well as the default page for My -> > Commits). Which is really annoying when you don't start from the home page. If I'm signing in from a change, that's because I want to comment/review on that change, not to go to a dashboard where it isn't even listed. > Please do.

It would benefit from having an interace like bugzilla advanced search, even if it gets coverted to the operators. _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
