I'm totally in favor of better tools and real pull requests, and of course the PRs need to be linked to bugzilla /somehow/. But I want to qualify "integration into bugzilla": I explicitly do not want a tool that is tightly coupled to bugzilla. In fact, I want a tool that has as little to do with bugzilla as feasible. I mean no disrespect to our bugzilla maintainers, who have an impossible and largely thankless job, but bugzilla has so much baggage from the '90s, my experience is that it ruins everything it touches. Consider for example how much better harthur's fileit and dashboard tools [1] [2] are than bugzilla's built-in equivalents. We shouldn't conflate owning the PR data with integrating the PR tool into bugzilla. If we do, we risk ending up with yet another crappy non-solution to a real problem (see bugzilla interdiff, splinter integration, and so on). -Justin [1] http://harthur.github.com/fileit/ [2] http://harthur.github.io/bugzilla-todos/ _______________________________________________ dev-platform mailing list dev-platform@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-platform
