Offtopic / big picture: In the long run (which probably translates to "never happens") I still have this vague idea of using DOAP (RDF) files to store machine-readable project metadata (maintainers, bugtracker, mailinglist, etc) in one central place, and to have interfaces to use this anywhere else. Apache Software Foundation projects do this, and also GNOME to some extend. > I think it's important to provide developers and other interested parties > with easy access to the relevant code when looking at a bug.

Not yet "usually" unfortunately, but I've been trying to improve extension descriptions from time to time to make them descriptive (and not "FOO: Foo extension"), having http://quominus.org/archives/714 in mind. > I have to imagine that this issue has come up in other bug trackers.

An additional input field? Something else? For Bugzilla I'm not aware of anything like a "add code repo URL on product/component level", at least I haven't seen this. If there is an extension out there then I haven't heard of it. It's a good question. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
