Hi Filip
Seconded.
I also think that a less than perfect bug tracker would be better than
non at all.
Surely the primary purpose of this mailing list is Sailfish
Development, but at the moment it is being flooded with bug reports
that may be of interest to Developers @ Jolla, but are probably less
interesting to developers outside Jolla.
I think it would be better if we started with a very simple process /
system, and let that evolve with time and experience, rather than
waiting for a perfect all singing-all-dancing bug tracker that will
probably never come at all.

Some people may recall the Maemo bugzillla was not a total success
(!) in terms
of communication and the current feeling is that it's not the right
answer for
Jolla.
The fact that something hasn't worked well doesn't mean it won't
work good in future. Maybe instead negating the idea of community
bug tracker, let's seriously think what didn't work then (Maemo bug
tracker) and how to overcome that so it would work now (Sailfish bug
tracker). Otherwise someone could say*, that Sailfish won't succeed,
because it is done by the same people who worked on Meego and Meego
failed at Nokia.
For more technical bugs we do have the Mer and Nemo bugzillas - but
they really
are for code and not end user issues like this. I personally
suspect we'll need
something like that for Sailfish development related bugs too but
we don't want
to put something official in place until we know we can provide the support
you'd expect.
Nemo bugzilla is mostly dead, except the Glacier UI related part.
That would suggest that Nemo middelware does not have bugs, but
strangely development is going on if you look at github nemo
middelware parts ;) What happened to weekly bug triages? Maybe it's
high time to think and talk seriously about co-creation now that it
is _after_ launch.
So, in summary, we are working on systems for this and we don't
want to provide
a half-baked solution which no-one will like - watch this space!
Wait a second, isn't Sailfish OS in beta stage and already sold as
part of product? So having that in mind it's hard to disagree with
statement that half-baked solution is better than no solution. Maybe
half-baked bug tracker would be much better than no bug tracker as
it is now? Especially that as it was seen on this mailing list
people have doubts if bugs they post here aren't omitted.
Regards,
Filip
