description |
Occasionally I have seen people on mailing lists (and most recently Matthew Barker in person) register a team, and then try to report bugs assigned to this team, without first having a relevant project to file the bugs against.
I don't know of an obvious solution to this problem -- it might require several small changes to each of the "People and teams", "Register a new team", and team Bugs pages. |
Occasionally I have seen people on mailing lists and IRC (and Matthew Barker in person) register a team, and then try to report bugs assigned to this team, without first having a relevant project to file the bugs against.
I don't know of an obvious solution to this problem -- it might require several small changes to each of the "People and teams", "Register a new team", and team Bugs pages.
<Laibsch> I can't even file a bug or a question against vcs-imports
<jml> that's because vcs-imports is a team
...
<jml> you can't file a bug against a team
<Laibsch> well, LP suggests it is possible ;-)
<jml> where?
<Laibsch> LP can be pretty confusing there
<Laibsch> https://bugs.launchpad.net/~vcs-imports
<Laibsch> https://answers.launchpad.net/~vcs-imports
<Laibsch> the sheer existence of that page
<jml> Laibsch: I don't find that so confusing. I mean, I wouldn't think I could file a bug on https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/~r0lf
<Laibsch> well, but the page at least has a meaning
<Laibsch> so, I would say the natural thing is to assume that the page has some meaning
<Laibsch> All I am saying is it can be confusing
<Laibsch> It confused me
<LaserJock> I kind of agree with Laibsch
<LaserJock> though I know you can't
<LaserJock> 1) I'd often like to file bugs against teams
<andrea-bs> how about a message "This page is not to report a bug against this team/person" on the top of the page?
<jml> andrea-bs: maybe
<Laibsch> andrea-bs: why not eliminate that page for teams?
<LaserJock> 2) a team can be subscribed and assigned to bugs, seems logical to be able to file a bug against a team
<jml> andrea-bs: a thing with that style of solution is that there are many things that the page is not :)
<LaserJock> Laibsch: what page?
<Laibsch> https://bugs.launchpad.net/~vcs-imports
<jml> Laibsch: because it's *useful*
<Laibsch> https://answers.launchpad.net/~vcs-imports
<andrea-bs> Laibsch: because it is useful to see which bugs are related to a team/person
<LaserJock> Laibsch: those pages are useful
<Laibsch> OK
<LaserJock> heh
<LaserJock> it's just you can file a bug against a team, but you can subscribe or assigne the team to a bug
<LaserJock> *can't file
<jml> LaserJock: something along the lines of filing bugs against people or teams would be useful
<jml> LaserJock: except probably not actual defect reports
<andrea-bs> jml: mh... maybe giving some buttons to report bugs to the related projects?
...
<LaserJock> it's especially useful if there isn't a related project
...
<LaserJock> hmm, I wonder if people appling for membership in a team could be treated as a bug
<jml> andrea-bs: yeah, I like that idea more.
...
<LaserJock> andrea-bs: how do you know what the related project is?
<andrea-bs> LaserJock: when a team is linked to a project (e.g. is a bug supervisor)
<jml> LaserJock: "most active in" is another way of getting a short list |

I hope this will be addressed in https://blueprints.launchpad.net/launchpad-registry/+spec/project-affiliation which we are discussing now. |
