I know I'm a month late on this, but one point that wasn't mentioned in this thread: When I was doing QA, I noticed that a majority of our duplicate bug reports had been reported *because* we were using multiple projects. People would report a bug at <https://bugs.launchpad.net/launchpad> and not get any duplicate suggestions, because the originals had already been moved to other Launchpad projects. So, using multiple projects has a QA cost. The kneejerk answer is to make duplicate detection optionally work across projects in a project group <http://launchpad.net/bugs/174443>. But that would benefit only projects in tightly related project groups. Beefing up up tags so that Launchpad itself can use them instead of projects (tag autocompletion, tag subscriptions, "tag:" search operator, etc.) would be more work, but it would benefit many more projects. - -- Matthew Paul Thomas http://mpt.net.nz/ -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iEYEARECAAYFAktExnAACgkQ6PUxNfU6ecqUNACeL/UOhSqxnVzHJ5lz2RhmBgOT GdsAn0LYM2x2NL53+ndkXEcwMx0cLtMZ =EfKH -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~launchpad-dev Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~launchpad-dev More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
