[Needs backend] Launchpad backend for bugs assigned to you

[Lionel Dricot]

Read-only backend for launchpad that displays the bugs assigned to you

[Bryce Harrington (bryce)]

Would be a very cool feature to have.

This can be implemented pretty easily using launchpadlib. Attached is an example lpl script which displays the bugs assigned to the user in project 'ubuntu'.

If you can provide some guidance in how this should be implemented in gtg, I might try to have a go at implementing this in gtg.

This makes me think that multi-backend is really needed.

For the guidance, it will have to wait that our multi-backends API is stable enough. This will be later this year. (if you are curious, you can already have a look at backend/localfile.py but it is very likely that it will change)

yeah the multi-backend seems like a big threshold feature - once you have this it turns gtg from a handy "todo list program" into a powerful "task consolidation and management" killer application.

Btw, I think a readwrite backend to launchpad ought not be that much harder than a readonly one, if using launchpadlib. Dunno how useful it'd be; you could mark bugs done (aka fix released) from gtg as the main usefulness. Anyway, just a thought.
