I am not sure about things in packages on in the installer though that is a harder question to answer. Notifying bug control of things like that may be nice but I don't know of any systems already in place. If this gets to all users how can we make sure there are not people that think this bug affects me therefore it is critical which could make lots of mistakes. Or a user that is like I want this fixed badly therefore it is critical. I think we need to not only know when users correctly identify critical bugs but what happens with mistakes and what makes ubuntu have better quailty overall. A bug tag on launchpad like iso-testing-critical for bugs that caused a failed testcase could be something to make triaging easier and would encourage people to use the tracker and would work on top of the already existing infrastructre. Or maybe iso-testing-fail could be another name for the tag. -- Brendan Perrine <walteror...@gmail.com> -- Ubuntu-quality mailing list Ubuntu-quality@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-quality
