I think a stacktrace alone is also valuable, especially if you start counting duplicates. The old error reporting infra used to aggregate such duplicates.
People also won't answer the same day for a follow-up. Because they might be busy. But also because they might have lost interest in that issue/NetBeans. Ideally they should have gotten a reply the same day, while the issue was fresh in their mind. In the end I think having a public issue tracker but providing no quality handling of user reports is just bad marketing. I know for sure I will *never* report a bug to a Gnome project. We don't want people to think the same of Apache NetBeans. If we care about follow up just tell people to report issue on dev@. --emi vin., 16 aug. 2019, 08:43 Tomáš Procházka <ka...@razdva.cz> a scris: > Hi, > I agree with points made by Matthias. > > Yesterday I tried to go through issues without assigned component and > assign at least PHP ones. > > I found a lot of filed bugs containig only stack trace without any > specific steps leading to exception.
