As someone that sometimes calls in help in trying to understand some of the reports

+1

Yes please.  That way I can just indicate help needed and don't have to load it onto someone I have contact with (typically Sam). I'm sure this will take some load off of Sam specifically.

Kind regards,
Jaco

Good morning everyone,


during tinderbox activity I realized that sometimes there are bugs with unknown causes at the time of filing.


Examples are:

- no "error: " string

- mysterious test failures

- hidden bugs on build.log but present on config.log and/or additional files

- bugs that may be related to new toolchain components, but not clearly stated


For that reason I would like to propose a new bugzilla KEYWORD, like:


- NEEDS-TRIAGE

or

- NEEDS-INVESTIGATION


or whatever you think is better.


With that KEYWORD we can set-up a saved search and 'experienced' devs can help to diagnose the issue.


This KEYWORD is supposed to be set manually and not supposed to be set automatically when there is a missing "error: " string. And obviously it can be used by everyone that needs help.


Before send this to the mailing list, I talked about that with sam (since he is one of those who does this activity) and agreed.


What do you think?


Agostino
