I'm not sure the font-problems bug is workable long term. It requires people manually making their bugs block it. OTOH getting the list CC-ed on problems in -fonts, freetype or fontforge can be automated. My master plan is to get the list recognized at a valid user in all the bug trackers we depend on, and have it CC-ed on problems that concern Fedora fonts & text rendering. It's easier for bugs in fedora bugzilla (just make it auto-CC) and it's easier for bugs in upstream bugzillas (no need to create a sister bug in Fedora bugzilla and make it block the tracker). System needs to be simple or no one will bother. >> I've created the SIG but we can make it live. > > Perhaps we should have a first SIG meeting on IRC before too long? :) We can if people feel like it.
