Hmm, excellent idea. We already have a method of putting users in bz groups via FAS/xmlrpc magic, and this is actually the best idea I've seen for handling this. Copying Thomas on this. Here's what I think the workflow would be: 1) Create new product in bz called Fedora Freemedia. Restrict entry in this product to members of freemedia_contrib or whatever. 2) Have the freemedia form, instead of sending mail, file bugs against that product, making them private to freemedia_contrib using the python-bugzilla interface. 3) When someone accepts the request, they ASSIGN the bugs to themselves. 4) When the request is completed, the person closes the bug. It's step 4 that we can't track with our current system. I, for example, was several days delayed in getting stuff out the door from accepting requests this month. That could be easily seen and somehow exported to our tracking page. I've got some reporting scripts for bz in general since I'm the Triage Dude(TM). They could be easily be modified to do whatever. As for the original post, I wasn't thinking that we were just talking about hosted here. I thought that we were eventually (not as part of this phase obviously) migrate existing lists from RH mailman to Hosted. _______________________________________________ Fedora-infrastructure-list mailing list Fedora-infrastructure-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-infrastructure-list
