- one key observation: let bugs "expire" much like news expires. If nobody has been whining enough that it gets into the high signal bug db then it probably isn't real. We really want a way where no activity means let it expire.
I want more than time based expiry, I want expiry for me that is controlled by me. When I delete the notification email in my mailbox, I never want to see that bug again unless I want to.
This effectively degrades into list posting based bug reports and my current email inbox, which is what I'm advocating to use :-)
When I see the "me too, heres some more info" response to the list posting, then I'm interested and I'll reread the list thread to digest all the information to see what I can make of it. When this happens bugs basically fix themselves, and this occurs only because of the acts taken on by the reporters of the bug not me. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
