Bug report interface comments

Bug report interface comments

[Andrej Borsenkow]

I tried to submit a (possible) bug, but what I do not like, that I have
to have a logon there. Else bug comes from none. Normally, I have a
field to enter mail address. It cannot be expected, that every user that
wants to submit a bug report will get login - that means, you have no
way to communicate with submitter.

I presume, this bug manager is intended for the end users in the first
place.

Now real bug in RE: Bug report interface comments

[Andrej Borsenkow]

Sorry for followup. The bug is is 103887. I tried to enter line that
looks like

mv BIC\ NMI

but '\' disappeared. I thought, it was copy'n'paste problem and entered
followup - but back slash was not there either!

Now, I call this a real bug - Adam, could you speak with sourceforge
folks on that matter?

I'm not so sure.  It seems to me more useful to have the bugs turn up here,
be discussed and filtered, and then have someone who knows what they're
doing enter it.  Unfortunately that means more work.  But maybe there's
someone who wants to volunteer as bug tracker.  Well, just a suggestion.

I have to do bug management anyway, so I'll do some work.. at least we
can set up some categories and such.

Erm... could we, until we have some automatic forwarding from the bug
manager to zsh-workers, agree that full bug descriptions be sent to
zsh-workers, too?
