So overall I agree with a lot of what you wrote. It does cause me to
wonder if writing some kind of plugin/extension for Pagure, or just
writing the functionality into the blockerbugs app, might possibly be
*less* work than writing and maintaining the 'blocker bot', however.
My other concern would be that if we use something other than the
blockerbugs app or Bugzilla, we now have *three* different systems
involved in the blocker review process - Bugzilla, the blockerbugs
app, and the discussion system. That seems like a lot of moving parts
to keep synchronized.
Thanks for working on this!
Has anyone poked at scoping out the work required for either the bot or
the enhancements we would need for pagure?
It might be interesting to look at porting the blockerbugs app to
django if we can make use of some existing django plugins. In the past,
I would have hesitated to do this because of the packaging requirements
and the amount of fun that plugin ecosystems can present but we're
going to have to move to openshift sooner than later which makes the
prospect of using something like Django a lot less daunting.
