Yes, and while we're at it, let's add the whole world's phone
directories, availability planning, ressource planning, project plans
and timelines as well.
What's wrong with storing more detailed information somewhere
easy-to-access?
It's simply not worth any effort.

I can't say I care, but not discussing problems and/or possible
optimisations over the current situation just because your stupid
scripts will break is not a good attitude.
It's not about my script (which is easy enough to adapt if need be).

It's just that things like this take time away from *real* issues (like
patches rotting on Zebrapig for ages).

This all started as a suggestion to rename the BUGS_TO field because
*one* person did not know what it means. That has been cleared up.

I can go back to working on stuff, you can go back to PinkTrace and
everyone else can work on patches. :-)
It is not about one single person at all. There was a small discussion on IRC about the meaning of it, with no clear outcome, and BUGS_TO was created at a time where we thought we would use bugzilla more. Please explain what BUGS_TO means, and why it would not make more sense to have it renamed to e.g. CONTACT or the likes. As I see it, that field is not being used to handle bugs, but more to indicate "I'm interested in this, please contact me before you make radical changes"

yes, it's a detail, but you are blowing the amount of work to changing it out of proportion as well imo.

Nobody says Ciaran has to do the work, we could just make a ticket and anyone could do it. It does not have to be high priority either. But not fixing something because we have patches in the pig is a lousy argument :P

Will you also mention my mom now? :)
