If it is difficult for the users, maybe it needs to be documented better. Might be as simple as a "Report old ebuild" links on the Bugzilla homepage. Somehow I don't think it is all that difficult though. To make a clean separation for other Bugzilla content a new Component may be added. This should ease an searching issues as long as the users searching are aware of the new component. But then we'd probably still see a bunch of confused, headless chickens running around squaking "ebuilds, old ebuilds". -- David Stanek www.roninds.net GPG keyID #6272EDAF on http://pgp.mit.edu Key fingerprint = 8BAA 7E11 8856 E148 6833 655A 92E2 3E00 6272 EDAF
