Hello Radek, guys,
I can see your point trying to stay away as much as possible from
bloatedness and keeping the code as minimal and maintainable as it
could be, a Golden goal, if you wish.
While it is true that a comment section built-in in Copr would feel
more 'natural', it is no less true that a properly tagged question on
Ask Fedora already solves the burden of implementing a new solution.
My question is: how feasible could it be to add a function to Copr
that automatically reads each repository information (may be on page
load) and automatically generates a link that points to an Ask Fedora
question already tagged with the name of the repo and the maintainer?
That way it would be like hitting the jackpot:
1. We can use a very useful solution that's already up, working and
proven; 2. Discussions and development would be automatically
accessible for everyone using Ask Fedora;
3. All the information would be kept in a central hub instead being
scattered through different places.
Well, I am not sure ask is a good fit here (at least that way).
ask is setup for questions and answers, not general discussion.
I suppose with a tag per coper we could group the questions, but I am
afraid they might be too scattered and non question like. ;(
Theres not really a way to make a tag without making a question for it,
and adding questions that aren't questions like "Copr XYZ" won't really
be good.
I wonder if it might be better to do two things:
1. Add a 'mail people who have acls to this copr' button. This would
allow people to send feedback like 'please update' or 'this is great
thanks' to the people responsible.
2. Point people to a 'copr-discuss' list. (which hopefully we could
make with hyperkitty). This could be used for any higher level
discussions about things.
