	Oh, actually, instead of that, just send me their email address and
their name by direct email. That way we can avoid spamming the person
with this email more than once. I'm already going to forward this to a
fair number of old contributors myself.

	Oh, note though that won't be including any quotes from you in the
results, publicly, without your explicit permission, so you're free to
say anything to me, and you don't have to fear that your words will be
published, made public in any way, or spread around to anyone else.

If You Used To Work On Bugzilla And No Longer Do...

	Hey there. I'd like to hear from people who used to work on Bugzilla
(in any way--as contributors, documentors, reviewers, anything) but no
longer do, or people who stopped working on Bugzilla at any point in the
past (even if they do work on it again now).

	I want to know what you feel caused you to stop working on Bugzilla,
whether it was an indvidiual thing, a collection of things over time,
the overwhelming demands of other parts of life, etc. To avoid starting
a flame war, please email me directly instead of responding here on the
list.

	If there was *anything* that discouraged you from working on Bugzilla,
even if it seems like a silly thing, I want to know about it. *Anything*
is fair game. If you want to tell me that it was something that I did,
and that you throw darts at my picture every night, you're absolutely
welcome to. You can be offensive, angry, I don't care. What I want to
know is what happened.

	If you just want to share your experiences of trying to contribute to
Bugzilla and what went wrong (and what went right), I'd love to know
that as well, even if you still are a contributor.

	If you know that somebody who used to work on Bugzilla but is not on
this list, please forward them this email.

	I'm currently doing some historical research on the Bugzilla Project to
determine the cause of increases and decreases on the size of our
community. I will share the results with you soon, and the responses I
get here will be part of it.

Re: Fwd: REST APIs, and Tags

Well, some people use the status whiteboard for English text rather than
tags. But you are right, we might be able to collapse that in too.
Great! :-) Simplicity is a win for everyone.

The status whiteboard, keywords, flags and now our current tag
implementation are four attempts over the course of Bugzilla's life to
get "tagging" (in the broad sense) right. We need to accept that all
four attempts missed the mark in one way or another, and that the rest
of the world has figured it out.

Why would that be a problem in practice when it isn't that a problem on
Twitter or Flickr or the many other sites which use tags?

Reach other bug descriptions

Hi!

On the bug page (show_bug.cgi?id=NNNNNN) i' d like to reach the informations of other bugs. Is it somehow
possible? For example on show_bug.cgi?id=130908 from edit.html.tmpl i' d like to reach the "depends on
informations" of bug #115222, can i somehow do it?

I can reach the "depends on informations" of bug #130908 (which is the actual) in this way:

 [% FOREACH depbug = bug.${name} %]
  do what i want
 [% END %]

From here can i somehow reach these informations for bug #115222 ??

-----

2) If maybe there' s no simple way, is there any way to reach these informations for the listed bugs on the "bug
list page" (buglist.cgi?....) (possibly from table.html.tmpl) .

Thank You for the answers.

Hard Freeze Extension

	Due to LpSolit being unavailable for most of last week, and there being
a LOT of patches that are awaiting review for 3.6, we're extending the
hard freeze date to December 18.

Representing Bugzilla on FOSDEM and other events

Hi,

there is a new mailing list for people who are interested in showing Perl
and various Perl based projects such as Bugzilla on conferences, workshops,
fairs and other events.

We have an emerging wiki page to collect information about events
and projects to be represented. Mailing list subscription information can also
be found there:

    http://www.perlfoundation.org/perl5/index.cgi?events

I'd be happy to see Bugzilla developers/users participate.

Specifically FOSDEM is less than 2 months away and the Perl community
has a stand there.
I'd like to understand if there are going to be Bugzilla developers or heavy
users who would like to promote Bugzilla on that stand or otherwise.

regards
  Gabor

If you're fluent in Polish, you may contribute to Aviary.pl team:

https://wiki.mozilla.org/Bugzilla:L10n:Localization_Teams#aviary.pl

Currently Polish is among endangered Bugzilla locales.

   Regards,
   Vitaly.

Re: If You Used To Work On Bugzilla And No Longer Do...

I haven't decided to stop working on Bugzilla, but my job 
responsibilities have shifted (and my personal life has ramped up some) 
and I am no longer actively working on it. I haven't looked at my 
bugmail for a while now or really done anything related to it other than 
vote on a bug here or there and read occasional emails with somewhat 
interesting subjects/first paragraphs. I guess that makes me someone who 
used to work on Bugzilla, but no longer does at the moment? I would 
personally put myself into a category of "sleeping on it" rather than 
stopped.

I am sure there are others on this list with the same situation. I 
replied to the list instead of directly to ask if you want those of us 
in this situation to check in as well.

Re: If You Used To Work On Bugzilla And No Longer Do...


I've been "less active" because the features that I need in my work have
made it into releases and I no longer need to be introducing many changes
to make Bugzilla work well for me so I have other priorities.

To the entire team's credit...   Bugzilla rocks pretty well without me
having to add more to it.
