Auto-assignment (and auto-add-to-nosy-list, for that matter) is handled by the "components" of the bug tracker, see bugs.python.org/component. The experts list is used just for populating the auto-completion for the nosy-list (that is, typing "multi" in the nosy list entry field brings up "multiprocessing: davin,pitrou" currently). Marking a dev as "(inactive)" in the experts list removes them from that auto-completion. We've long discussed the possibility of rearranging how bpo does auto-nosy/auto-assign such that a reporter can tag the affected module(s) and auto-nosy based on the experts list. That would take significant effort which probably isn't worth doing unless PEP581 winds up rejected, but in the meantime we could easily add a `multiprocessing` component that does whatever auto-nosy and/or auto-assignment we want. -- Zach _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
