I wrote the following at: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA#Communicate >> Bugs need to be filed in Bugzilla. People on IRC and fedora-test-list can help you diagnose a bug, determine the scope of a bug (who else is seeing it), decide what component to file against, and know whether or not the behavior you see is intentional. If a bug is reported on the mailing list and not Bugzilla, then the right developer might not see it, might lose the e-mail, or might forget about the report. The Bugzilla database organizes reports so they are not lost, groups comments in one place for easy reference, and to make it easy to find reports so other testers don't make duplicate reports. A common practice is to file a bug first, then e-mail the list with a link to the bug report, asking for further assistance. Many bugs are also filed with no e-mail to the mailing list, so be sure to search Bugzilla for your problem. << I hope the advice given is accurate and wise; corrections and clarifications are welcome. I have recently seen a number of reports being sent to the mailing list which haven't gotten any reply. I hope that reporters know enough to file these reports in Bugzilla; as far as I know, no one is combing the fedora-test-list archives to find bugs that have fallen through the cracks. I adapted this text from [[Testing]] so that it could become a redirect to [[QA/Join]], since people wanted Testing to go away entirely (which makes sense). https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-test-list is probably a better place for these two paragraphs, so that everyone who signs up for the mailing list will see them. But this page is not on the wiki, so I can't edit it. -B. -- fedora-test-list mailing list fedora-test-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-test-list
