This is *not* the reason for registation. The reason for registation is that we know from experience that having a way to talk with the reporter drastically increases the chance that the bug will get fixed. Registration offers verification of the submitters email. We would rather get fewer higher quality and more engaged bugs than what we've had in the past where bugs were a one way vent. To preempt the next question: why don't we allow users to submit via email but verify with a token? That system isn't possible with how the gateway is set up now. Its a long term possability. If someone wants to help set that up please contact me offline (at bugmeister@). What about bug followups via email? That one won't be supported for a bit as we get used to bugzilla. It certainly on the cards to support in the future. -- Eitan Adler _______________________________________________ freebsd-ports@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-ports-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
