The problem with the whiteboard field is it's too vulnerable to error: you can typo easily, and anyone putting anything else there can intentionally or inadvertently overwrite what anyone else has put in it. It's such a fragile field I'm never happy relying on it...even using it for accepted/rejected status as we do now was meant to be a stopgap. Adjusting the process for nominating blockers is a legitimate way out of the problem, of course, but I don't think using the whiteboard field is a good alternative. Any other ideas? :) -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Twitter: AdamW_Fedora | identi.ca: adamwfedora http://www.happyassassin.net -- test mailing list test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test
