I don't see a problem with that approach, to be frank, I can't see any intrinsic reason why we should prescribe always making the oldest report the 'original'; it does seem to make more sense to make the most useful report the 'original'. Only point to note is that it would definitely be a good thing to fix Bugzilla to merge the CC lists, I'll file a bug on that. =) -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Fedora Talk: adamwill AT fedoraproject DOT org http://www.happyassassin.net -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
