Bug Description

<https://launchpad.net/~alejandra-obregon/+subscriptions> has a link with the text "Structural subscriptions". That doesn't mean anything except to Launchpad developers.

The obvious way of fixing this would be to just list the structural subscriptions inline, followed by the direct subscriptions, without any headings.

Another way would be to keep the link, but change its text to something like "Projects and packages".

Structural subscriptions are indeed a registry issue. They are only used for bugs at the moment and the bug team is working on this page now. I think it is best that we place this bug with the related bugs.

I'm marking this low only because we're not committed to finishing out these pages to complete the work we're currently doing. It's a simple fix to update the language in these pages. I hope these pages aren't linked anywhere yet and it's just that mpt is resourceful. :-) If they are linked, we need to correct that ASAP.

Cheers,

They were linked for a bit a couple of weeks back, mpt - how did
you/alejandro get to that URL?

I don't remember how I knew that the page existed. I guessed its URL while helping someone in #launchpad who was getting unwanted bugmail. <http://irclogs.ubuntu.com/2010/11/28/%23ayatana.html#t13:08>

(Ironically, the page didn't help them, because it didn't show the *project group* they were subscribed to.)
