The day when working on Debian requires the use of a web interface will be the day that I hunt down and painfully kill the person responsible for doing it. Removing the ability to manage things from the shell would not be more organised and efficient unless you're a complete fricking moron who can't operate a unix host. Which appears to be the target audience of launchpad. We're working with the real stuff here, not kids toys. Web interfaces don't scale to the level at which we have to work *all the time*. Just ask the BTS admins what happens when somebody scans http://bugs.debian.org/ to collect data. Oh, and hey - when SuSE are doing better than you at publishing the tools they use, it's a hint that maybe you suck. -- .''`. ** Debian GNU/Linux ** | Andrew Suffield : :' : http://www.debian.org/ | `. `' | `- -><- |
