What I find terrible about the bugzilla experience compared to any forge bug tracker is the default entry point to it for users is not simply the list of bugs in the component. The search facility is the frontend and IMHO that immediately degrades the experience compared to the integrated bug trackers. Regardless of what else BZ offers, it is hard to accept that entrypoint as a desirable experience. Conceptually I find the co-location of bug tracker, code and merge request to be a compelling mechanism to encourage collabaration with users. The provides a conceptual nudge for users, towards looking at the code and opening a MR, rather than merely opening a bug and doing nothing more. I'd willingly sacrifice BZ features to get that improved integration With regards, Daniel -- |: https://berrange.com ~~ https://hachyderm.io/@berrange :| |: https://libvirt.org ~~ https://entangle-photo.org :| |: https://pixelfed.art/berrange ~~ https://fstop138.berrange.com :| -- _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe send an email to [email protected] Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/[email protected] Do not reply to spam, report it: https://forge.fedoraproject.org/infra/tickets/issues/new
