Let's assume that nntp.cgi has been written, so that nnbugzilla can get data out at a sensible speed. One-group-per-search/product/category/whatever: The user would have a command in the group buffer to create the group, which would prompt for URL, category, etc, and then create the group based on those criteria. `M-g' on the group would issue one nntp.cgi call to get the bugs and how many comments there have been made. nnbugzilla would maintain a `(bug# comment# article-number)' triplet in a local file to be able to map article numbers to bug/comments. Say there has been one new comment made to a bug. `M-g' will report one new article. Entering the group with `RET' does one show_bug.cgi call (because of the mapping it knows which bug the user wants to see), and displays the single comment. Hitting `^' will go to the previous comment without any http traffic, because Gnus will already have all the headers for this bug, and threading works. `A T' will show all the comments in the bug. If a bug disappears from the group, nnbugzilla removes all the mappings for that bug. Or perhaps using an expiry scheme -- dead bugs that are older than a month are removed. Neat, huh? The only problem is that the only way to display all open bug reports in the category is to `C-u RET' the group, and display all the threads to all the bugs. Which means issuing one show_bug.cgi per bug. So just getting displaying what bugs are active would be s.l.o.w. I think one-group-per-category just can't be made workable because of this last problem. -- (domestic pets only, the antidote for overdose, milk.) larsi@gnus.org * Lars Magne Ingebrigtsen
