Thanks Scott. Why I was stuck on user intervention with assigning/subscribing I am not sure. Lets try again... A team that is subscribed bugs is what I was after, though maybe put slightly wrongly as no user intervention is actually needed over and above reporting a bug. What I would like for Ubuntu game package bugs is: - Create a 'games-swat' team for the triage of game bugs in Ubuntu. - Create a 'games-swat-bugs' mailing list. - All bugs reported against game packages in Ubuntu are subscribed to team and email sent to the 'games-swat-bugs' mailing list. - People join the 'games-swat' team. - People subscribe to the 'games-swat-bugs' mailing list which using filters will allow quick isolation of game bugs that a person can then look at and maybe assist with. This is similar to how X Swat works and I feel would be a good way for those 'volunteers' interested in helping with game bugs in Ubuntu to get exactly what they want and nothing else for triage or fixing. How this interacts with Debian is a further discussion but may increase the speed of bugs reports over to Debian and possibly fixes. It may also encourage people to develop directly as part of the joint Debian/Ubuntu development team. Hopefully this is clearer. Regards Phil
