Re: Your ideas for bugs.php.net improvements

Hi Maciej. Thanks for taking the initiative! I'd like to add something to the wishlist: * See who's in charge of the bugtracker. Not the people handling the bugs per se but those that have access to the machine running the bug-tracker, those that have access to the github-repo, those that have access to the DB etc. That would make it easy to know whom to address directly. Having an anonymous "we all do it" sadly often results in a "no one does it". Having Having people commit themselves to the task gives the whole project a face to the customer and makes it easier to address. At least that's from what I'Ve seen so far. Those "public faces" don't need to be those that actually *do* stuff but they should know whom to delegate the stuff.

bugs.php.net seems to respond from sgrv20.php.net Shame this box isn't documented on wiki.php.net/systems at all :( So your point still stays relevant.

* Where shall bugs or feature requests for the bugtracker be tracked? I didn't find a category (or project) that would fit an issue for the bugtracker within the bugtracker. So either we add it there, or activate the github-issues. (I'd prefer the former). And keeping track within a wiki isn't really working out well…

There is a generic "PHP.net Website Problem" category in the bugtracker and as far as I can see it was used for this purpose since forever. Do you think we should add subcategories for some of web-* projects?

Just my 0.02 € Andreas PS: Who has write-access to the wiki-page? (apart from you (-; )

Anyone with php.net account should be able to log in and edit it. Cheers, Maciej.

Hello guys, while discussing possible ways to reduce number of open bug reports[1] many people expressed their (valid, I think) complaints about our bugtracker itself. Could we keep those discussions separated? I just created new wiki page https://wiki.php.net/ideas/bugtracker gathering some common ideas on the matter. I suggest to treat this thread like an open wishlist. I know there is a log way between an idea and its implementation but we certainly need to start somehow. Little discussion doesn't seem to do any harm. Feel free to reply here and/or update wiki page. I'll take care of syncing it if there will be a need. Thanks, Maciej.
