I certainly appreciate the ease of simply adding a landing-plan task to an existing bug, and the idea appeals to me for simplicity sake, but my concern is that everybody will just start adding landing-plan tasks to *every* bug, and that is just even more pointless busywork on top of the pointless busywork that we already have. The point of the landing-plan bugs is that they're a sort of meta-bug, they're meant to say "ok, we are announcing our intent to stage a release that fixes bugs A, B, C, D. The first three are in trunk already, bug D has a merge proposal that will land soon, please coordinate the merging of that branch and the releasing of the package" So because of that it doesn't make a lot of sense to share a bug number with any one specific bug. Each landing plan bug should simply link to the bugs & merges that it intends to include in it's release. My goal is to see less than one landing-plan bug per each "regular" bug that we have, ie, that you only file one landing-plan bug per project per week, not that a landing-plan task gets added to every little bug that gets fixed. -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-phone Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-phone More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
