It seems that bouncing of the ASSIGNED pointer is a polarizing issue. Some people like it, some people hate it. NEEDINFO is a little less polarizing, although some people hate to bounce too.

I think you're mis representing the amount of people liking it. YOU seem to like the bouncing idea, other then that in the maillist discussion I've only seen people disliking it in varying degrees.

Just having ASSIGNED set to the reviewer and leaving it at that has worked well for FE for years. I understand that the tracker bug doesn't scale hence the flags. But what problem with the old way of doing things are you are trying to fix here? Maybe if you can explain that, then things become more clear to the rest of us.

Does it really matter if we like it or not?
We have been using it since last Saturday at Fudcon, and it works alright for now. Of course it's not perfect, and maybe the process could have been communicated better, but I (and I speak for myself here) haven't had a lot of problems with it. It's just a few mouseclicks and typing in the name of the owner in the Assigned To field. In general most of the Redhat people who's packages I reviewed understood the process as well, and if not, I just pointed them to Warren's page (http:// fedoraproject.org/wiki/warrenTogami/ReviewWithFlags)

There's a relatively small amount of people working very hard to review some 1200 packages, but it seems to me there are many more people arguing about the process. I would be glad if they spend their time helping us review those package, instead of wasting time with this discussion.

Just my 2 cents,

Ruben
