Hi,
I enabled an experimental barebones feature that broadcasts
Debbugs
changes on #guix. It's another technical feature that could
improve the
speed at which bugs are being closed.
Please let me know what you think!
Reiterating what I said in IRC:
I think the bot messages have value, but the value is subjective.
To regular Guix users, they have more value, and to those looking
for help with problems, they have less.
Becasue of this, I think the messages need to be opt-in. The
simplest way to do that is to put them in a separate channel,
which those who want to see the messages can join. I could see
posting in #guix for uncommon, exceptional, and/or important
cases, such as new bugs with grave severity being filed (or
existing bugs upgraded to grave severity).
Thanks,
-- Ian
