Re: "Independent" comments on a bug.

** Reply to note from Jani Taskinen <sniper@iki.fi> Sun, 18 Mar 2001 23:33:46 +0100 (CET) A few thoughts on this subject... Anyone should be able to comment on any bug report. Anyone who comments on a bug report (that is not a developer) should get an email when the status of the bug changes, or a new comment is posted to the bug. The developers list might be subscribers to php-dev. A special kind of comment, "Add me to the bug's interest list" should be supported that does not trigger a message, and just adds you to the list. Anyone on the interest list for a bug that is declared a duplicate should be added to the interest list for the bug that it duplicates so that everyone interested in the problem gets notified when something happens. Duplicate email addresses should be eliminated. An email should be sent to the interest list of the duplicate telling them that the bug is a duplicate, what bug it duplicates, and that they will still be notified when anything changes.
