Hi all, The migration of several tags from the Whiteboard -> Keywords is now largely complete for Open bugs. Here's some useful info for y'all:
Shhhh! ------ Last week I made some tweaks to Bugzilla to make it easier to do bulk edits to bugs without spamming everyone's inboxes. Because bugs were updated without an email notification, I did include a short comment with each silent change. What's Changed? ---------------- There were several categories of Whiteboard tags that were migrated to Keywords. Here's the live list of Keywords: https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/describekeywords.cgi And here's the current wiki page for Whiteboard tags https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/QA/Bugzilla/Fields/Whiteboard The Keywords field will give you some auto-completion options once you start typing, so as long as you remember the first few characters, you're set. Alongside the basic migration, I did a bit of consolidation, typo correction, and added documentation. There were a number of EasyHacks tagged with "SkippCpp" (instead of "SkillCpp") and some other amusing Whiteboard entries. Remember: Although it may be tempting, please do not write full sentences in the Whiteboard! :-) Big kudos go to beluga and others who helped to triage and close a number of old bugs that were uncovered during the migration. How Do I Update My Queries? --------------------------- The safest way to update any saved query urls is to open them in a browser and tweak them live in Bugzilla. For those who like to live dangerously, it's often possible to just search-and-replace "status_whiteboard" -> "keywords" _IF_ all tags you're referencing have been converted to Keywords. Example: OLD: <rss>https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/buglist.cgi?bug_status=NEW&bug_status=ASSIGNED&bug_status=REOPENED&product=LibreOffice&query_format=advanced&status_whiteboard=EasyHack%20DifficultyInteresting%20SkillCpp&status_whiteboard_type=allwords&ctype=atom</rss> NEW: <rss>https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/buglist.cgi?bug_status=NEW&bug_status=ASSIGNED&bug_status=REOPENED&product=LibreOffice&query_format=advanced&keywords=EasyHack%20DifficultyInteresting%20SkillCpp&keywords_type=allwords&ctype=atom</rss> Documentation ------------- I've updated the pages on the TDF wiki to reflect the migrated Whiteboard tags and provide some additional information on using Keywords. If you know of external docs or references, or your eagle eyes spot something in the wiki that I have missed, please let me know.
