481172 - Better filtering of spreadfirefox bugs

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Websites Graveyard :: spreadfirefox.com, defect)

Description

[Paul Booker]

Hello,

To help better filtering of spreadfirefox bugs it would be great if it were possible to tag bugs with some agreed keywords, perhaps starting with these ..

'theme' , 'module' , 'content', 'security' , 'server'

This would allow the web development team connected with spreadfirefox to quickly / proactively  find bugs related specifically to 'modules' or 'themes' or a systems admninistrator to find bugs quickly / proactively that are related to 'security' or 'server' matters 

FYI
'Keyword' on bugzilla takes its own specific values

It might be a better idea to follow the lead of SUMO and QMO and get SFX its own product instead of being a component of websites.

Comment 2

[Paul Booker]

Thats interesting, i didn't even consider that as an option .

Maybe though we could have some new "keywords" allowed by the bugzilla administrator perhaps 'drupal-theme' and 'drupal-module' for starters ?

I would personally prefer to keep with the predominant structure for website orgnaization of Product = Websites and Component = spreadfirefox.com

I agree with Lucy.  Making SFx a component would be the best way to accomplish this, but I'm not sure this is necessary yet, nor what would be the best subcategories, so I don't want to rush this by throwing some new keywords at it.

What's the main benefit of having these new subcategories?
What kinds of categories would be best *moving forward*?

It's not like we have a ton of developers on this project, so I'm not sure who would benefit by breaking things up so much.

What's the main benefit of having these new subcategories?

For me personally the benefit would be that i could bookmark a bug list of  'module' specific  bugs etc . 

What kinds of categories would be best *moving forward*?
'drupal-modules' and 'drupal-themes' seem to be good for my needs right now

It's not like we have a ton of developers on this project, so I'm not sure who
would benefit by breaking things up so much.

I would benefit as i would only be opening 'drupal-module' bugs. There are lots of 'drupal-theme' specific bugs that don't need my attention.

We don't add keywords for such purposes, but you're free to use the status whiteboard to track things (example: [drupal-theme], etc.). Comment #1 is also an option.

[Paul Booker]

Thanks Reed.

Testing the status whiteboard ..

Comment 7

[Majken Connor [:Kensie]]

heh found this while adding other whiteboard keywords.

Currently going through and adding 'style', 'strings' and 'affiliates' to help with organization.

Comment 8

[Paul Booker]

The following choice of whiteboard tags still seem like a good choice ..

'theme' , 'module' , 'content', 'security' , 'server'

It would be great for me if i could book 5 bookmark in bugzilla 'spreadfirefox-theme' ,  'spreadfirefox-module' ,.. instead of a catch all 'spreadfirefox'

Best, Paul

I'll close this bug as were free to apply/append any whiteboard tags that are convenient.

Best, Paul
