I think that there's general agreement on that front, although some people have expressed concern at the time that it might take a bug to "bubble up" from a distro's bugtracker and reach us. Perhaps we should 1) Figure out how many non-distro-specific bugs are reported downstream 2) Figure out how much longer it takes for them to reach our devs than bugs reported in FDO > Maybe we could close those bugs with a comment á > la "This bug is only related to $version of $distro. @reporter: > Would you be so kind to report it again at $link?“ or the like ... > ;) Personally, I'd like to cultivate a relationship with the maintainers of LibreOffice in each distro and be able to "give" them these bugs. Before we close the bug in FDO, I'd like to assign it to that maintainer so that they can open a corresponding bug in the distro bugtracker. Do we have a 'downstream' mailing list for distros? It might be handy to have something like that... :-) >> We currently have a link in the LibreOffice menus "Help -> Send >> Feedback" that currently points at the BSA and will point at the >> more generalized Feedback page soon. > > What does "soon" mean?

Oh, certainly. I don't have any recent distro builds of LibreOffice to determine if they change the URL -- can you confirm this one way or the other? > I am not sure, if there is already a feature request in one of > the different BTSes though ... :( That's a good point re: Feature requests. Hopefully those would also "bubble up" to us over time... --R _______________________________________________ List Name: Libreoffice-qa mailing list Mail address: Libreoffice-qa@lists.freedesktop.org Change settings: http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-qa Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/libreoffice-qa/
