Hello, I made a Greasemonkey userscript to manage bug reports from bugs.debian.org. It allows manipulating the tags list, the severity, the forwarded to address, and so on. It generates clickable mailto: links with all the needed commands for control@bdo. It is available at
https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/users/gioele-guest/bst-userscripts.git/ (direct link <https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/users/gioele-guest/bts-userscripts.git/plain/manage-debian-bugs-via-web.user.js>) Once the script is installed you can change the existing fields like "severity" and "tags" (they are now editable text fields) and add fields that are not there yet (click on "Additional fields..."). When changes are detected, a list of pending changes will appear. You can submit these changes in various ways: clicking on "submit via control" will generate an email ready to be sent to `cont...@bugs.debian.org`; clicking on "via bts" will show the command line to use to send these commands via the `bts` command line utility; using the "reply" and "close" that will add the necessary "Control" lines to those email. The script is good enough for my needs. It is definitely not finished nor ready to be used by the public at large. The script has been tested only with Firefox 42. Bug reports and patches are welcome. Background. Some weeks ago I came across the bug page for dash and it looked like it could use some triaging. I then discovered how unpleasant it is to manage those bug reports, especially if you did not receive the bug original bug report. I have composed and sent many emails to ###@, ###-done@ and control@, but I thought it would had been much more productive to have a script collect all the needed pieces of information for me and put them in a ready-to-send email. This is that script. I hope this may be useful to other people as well. Cheers, -- Gioele Barabucci <gio...@svario.it>
