Richard - you are right about the scope here, but we are working towards progress in this area. It's not easy! Hopefully you'll start to see progress over the next few months in terms of content visibility and usefulness. And beyond that we have other efforts underway for further improvements.

Alas we find that something like 75% of our PRs end up being marked confidential until we ask for them to be changed (sometimes multiple times :P), even when there is no reason for them to be, which tends to make the PR search all but useless for any real work. And I won't even start complaining about the accuracy of the PR public facing descriptions, that would be a whole 'nother thread. :) Sorry but the only way to get any real work done is to have an RE or SE be your bitch and look up the PRs to tell you what they're REALLY about, hoping for anything else is a complete fantasy. -- Richard A Steenbergen <r...@e-gerbil.net> http://www.e-gerbil.net/ras GPG Key ID: 0xF8B12CBC (7535 7F59 8204 ED1F CC1C 53AF 4C41 5ECA F8B1 2CBC) _______________________________________________ juniper-nsp mailing list juniper-nsp@puck.nether.net https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/juniper-nsp
