I get huge amounts of email, so I've developed some survival strategies. One of them is to ignore sources of noise. Bodhi emails are mostly noise. Almost always, when bodhi sends me email, the email tells me something I already know. A build finished. Yes, I know. I saw the "fedpkg build" command complete. I didn't need even one email about it, much less multiple emails. If you want me to pay attention to bodhi emails, then the signal-to-noise ratio has to improve dramatically.

Once an update has gone stable, there is no possibility of modifying it, so commenting on it further is not useful. File a bug please. Then I can create a new update to fix the problem, and a link to the update will be added to the bug. Here's the problem with allowing comments on stable updates: they're going to get lost in the shuffle. Those of us who maintain hundreds of packages need a fast, easy way to answer the question, "What outstanding problems do my packages have?" That way we can select what to work on next. I can go to bugzilla and see a list of open bugs. I can go to bodhi and see a list of updates in testing. Where, exactly, do I go to see a list of stable updates that have comments indicating more work needs to be done? Nowhere, which means I'm going to forget about those updates and the problems won't get fixed. Regards, -- Jerry James http://www.jamezone.org/
