Fer's blog http://www.gnome.org/~fherrera/blog fer, ferulo, that crazy man en Copyright 2006 Fernando Herrera 60 Mon, 06 Feb 2006 15:36 GMT fherrera@onirica.com PyBlosxom http://pyblosxom.sourceforge.net/ 1.3.2 2/13/2006 New bug-buddy: less is more new-bugbuddy http://www.gnome.org/~fherrera/blog/new-bugbuddy.html Thanks to the great Olav we have XML-RPC on GNOME bugzilla (testing version). So I finally committed to an experimental branch the new bug-buddy "less is more":
  • No more application/product/component selection
  • No more long descriptions
  • No more mostfreq stuff
  • No more gdb pages
  • No more save report
  • No more sendmail at all
Just catch the crash, get the info and send it. The remaining issues are:
  • Should we ask the user what was he doing during the crash? (Windows and other reporting tools are not doing it)
  • Should we ask email address to the user?
