This is a question to the list in general, as much as
it is a response to this bug report: would it not make
more sense to start filing bug reports using the bugzilla
site already set up [1]? I do appreciate seeing these
reports here -- even if I'm not sure what is causing the
problem -- but I tend to loose them in my mailbox after
a while. If nothing else, regular use of bugzilla will
allow us to get a better feel for the quality of the ia64
work (which is, of course, awesome :).
I agree, Kevin, Yongkang and I talked about this at OLS, but I
haven't had a chance to actually implement anything. Given where we are
in development, I think sending bug reports to the mailing list is an
effective way of getting it in front of people that can fix problems.
However, when a problem doesn't get resolution on the mailing list, we
should definitely start tracking things in bugzilla. It's certainly
reasonable that these can be done in parallel too. Thanks,
Alex
