Sourceforge Tracker bad.  Bugzilla good. Only having one choice good. :)

I have accounts at both places so its not really a big deal for me which to use.

I'm fine with whatever choice.

yeah, definitely. i'm tempted to even put xsetwacom into a separate
component though I'm not sure how smart that would be.

As a distro maintainer: yes please.

would libwacom have a component of it's own?

[Linuxwacom-devel] Changing to freedesktop bugzilla?

2012-01-11 Thread Peter Hutterer
Trawling through my xorg bugs yesterday I found a few that were filed
against the Input/wacom component at bugs.freedesktop.org. This was created
ages ago, when Ping and I were talking about moving the driver over to
freedesktop.org in general. We decided to stay with sf.net in the end to
avoid too big a break for our users (this discussion happened ~2 years ago
or so)

However, given sf's issue tracker moving to the freedesktop.org bugzilla
seems quite tempting. I personally find the issue tracker horrible.
There are a few advantages in using bugs.freedesktop.org:
- bugzilla is somewhat of a standard when it comes to bugreporting
- cross-referencing/reassigning bugs is easier between other components such
  as the X server
- tighter integration with xorg in general. X.org hackers tend to look at
  the bugzilla, they don't look at our sf page.
- better references: http://bugs.freedesktop.org/12345 vs
  
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=3456195&group_id=69596&atid=525124

Disadvantages:
- this should only be done for the xf86-input-wacom component (and xsetwacom
  bugs), kernel bugs should not go there (or at least would require a
  different component).
- users would need to create a user account separate from sf.net
- technically off-site (I doubt that matters)

And other things I missed. What's the general feeling on it?
If we're not switching, I'll probably poke the fdo admins to remove the
bugzilla component so we don't get bugreports that no-one looks at.

Cheers,
  Peter
