I'm not saying we should ignore crashes, but the filter helps if you're trying to look for more general feedback or ideas. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/buglist.cgi?bug_status=NEW&bug_status=ASSIGNED&classification=Fedora&component=gnome-shell&f1=status_whiteboard&list_id=3067434&n1=1&o1=substring&product=Fedora&query_format=advanced&v1=abrt_hash&version=20&version=21&version=rawhide ** OR: http://ur1.ca/izz9a [non-ABRT gnome-shell bugs for F20, F21, rawhide: 224] Bastien's right that triage takes a lot of time, especially with a slow BZ. But would it be possible to sort these bugs into a few general bins? Examples: a11y, video issues, performance, etc.? The purpose would be to see if one area seems to attract more feedback or complaints than others, and that might help with F22 prioritization. -- Paul W.
