Hi,
De : ~suv <suv-sf@...58...>
- the official list is far too restrictive, and some more tags (at least those related to the main features/objects/actions/..., or the more useful ones) would greatly improve bug management.
agreed.
I've moved some tags from the unofficial list to the official one: 3dbox, autosave, bitmap, boolops, cli, clipboard, clipping, clones, color, connectors, eraser, filters-svg, freehand, gradient, grids, groups, guides, importing, layers, markers, objects, packaging, pattern, performance, regression, renderer, shape-editing, snapping, spray, styles, tablet, undo, viewbox, website, xmleditor.
and I still hesitate to add the following tags: ui-preferences (after renaming it preferences?) ui-shortcuts (shortcuts?) openclipart (merged with ocal?) uniconvertor blur palette (new tag) dialogs (new tag) toolbars (new tag)
Only one move from official to unofficial: import-export. Even if this tag is present in lots of reports, I thing we should encourage bug reporters to use importing and exporting instead. And as for bug triage, the tag is not "dropped", it is just no longer official ;)
Don't hesitate to tell me if you think some other tags should be added, or if he list is too long (63 entries, including the 10 most used unofficial tags...).
I am trying to keep the list in the wiki [1] updated with any tags I find in older reports that are not included in the Launchpad list but still in the bug database for Inkscape.
How should we handle this? Is my perception wrong and closed bugs (invalid, won't fix, fix released) are indeed no longer relevant?
No, I think you're right! I almost always include closed bug (and sometimes even duplicates...) in my search.
Do you mind if I update the wiki page (new official list and some other suggestions)?
