Bug ID: 462441
Summary: "Open bugs reported by me" is missing bugs with
NEEDSINFO
Classification: Websites
Product: bugs.kde.org
Version: unspecified
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: templates
Assignee: sysad...@kde.org
Reporter: indecisiveautoma...@gmail.com
CC: she...@kde.org
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
In the "Open bugs reported by me" link on the homepage, it does not show bugs
that are marked as "NEEDSINFO" (or maybe it's "WAITINGFORINFO" that makes it
not show up? I'm not sure). This may be intentional but to me it makes more
sense to list these, as it makes it easier to find the bug again and give that
requested information.
There may certainly be other labels here that cause bugs to not show up, even
when there is a follow-up response expected from the reporter.
This change could prevent bugs from getting lost in a reporter's list of bugs.
I currently have several 18 open bug reports, usually with a few getting active
engagement at any given time. It can be easy for reports that don't show up
this "Open bugs" list to be forgotten about, which I'm sure is frustrating for
the maintainers that take time to review the reports and have asked for
information to help fix a problem!
Email notifications are sent out, but these are for all bugs that a user is
CC'd on, which means if they have several (including closed issues that may get
bumped), it may not be reasonable for emails to be how they keep on top of
bugs.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Sign into https://bugs.kde.org/
2. Click on the "Open bugs" list
3. If you have a bug marked as "NEEDSINFO" / "WAITINGFORINFO", it won't be
displayed
OBSERVED RESULT
Bugs marked as "NEEDSINFO" / "WAITINGFORINFO" do not appear in the "Open bugs
reported by me" page.
EXPECTED RESULT
Bugs marked as "NEEDSINFO" / "WAITINGFORINFO" should show up in the "Open bugs
reported by me", as they are still open but just pending more information from
the reporter, who may forget more easily if it's not in the open bugs list.
