Changing a title (that was likely put there deliberately) without consulting the original author is certainly unlikely to lead to desirable behaviour adjustment (writing informative titles). For the most part, silly (non-offensive) titles will fail to attract serious reviewers, so I expect the issue to be largely self policing anyway (people will learn that informative titles work better). A possible danger is that a sillily titled ticket with sub-par code attracts a sub-par (positive) review--flying under the radar of serious eyes. However, hopefully this would be discovered upon merge (Volker is our last defence). Also, this is a risk that is inherent to sage's development model and I'm not sure that the sillility of the title correlates with this risk factor. If silly titles really get in vogue we may have to take more drastic action to preserve the reputation and fundability of sage development. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-devel" group.
