These emails have probably outgrown their use, so let's evaluate: - Reasons for removal: The content is overwhelming, and does clutter the list search results - Reasons for changing: Same as above, and good ideas would result - Reasons for keeping: Old timers like old things, it reminds us that we have many bugs, and ^f Like, they could instead show simple statistics similar to ones presented here: - http://bugs.php.net/lstats.php?phpver=5&per_category=1 - http://bugs.php.net/bugstats.php?phpver=5 And while doing this, we could show how many were open/closed the previous week. I think I just volunteered to make that happen, if desired by others. Other ideas (some crazier than others): - Show who closed bugs (positive) - Show how long bugs have been assigned to people (negative) - Show the top 5 buggiest and bug free extensions (both) - ... Hopefully others have ideas, especially for positive reinforcement as it unfortunately feels much easier to come up with negative ones. But, that's okay too. ;) Regards, Philip
