I think this is an interesting idea, but aside from the drawbacks someone else noted (blocker voting is not QA-only), I see another: our current mailing list archive kinda sucks and is a pain to read a long thread on. If we get the shiny new one Mo is designing this might become a moot point, but right now I'd rather read even a messy bugzilla report than a long ML thread via our mail archives. -- 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
