[Bug 17613] New: Add tags to AppDB.
http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=17613 Summary: Add tags to AppDB. Product: WineHQ Apps Database Version: unspecified Platform: All OS/Version: All Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: enhancement Priority: P2 Component: appdb-unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org ReportedBy: fallenblood(a)gmail.com The current category system is quite inflexible. How about a standardized tagging system? The possibilities are endless, for example, which Wine components does the app depend on. This could completely replace categories. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

How about using the 'PHP Tag Engine'? http://code.google.com/p/phptagengine/ Are you offering to code it up:) You mentioned converting: Existing: *Categories to tags (this I read as proving the tagging system works with the existing data base eg: straight conversion to tagging / with no change visible to users?) Creating a new group called: *Dependencies (?) how do you see this working, what happens when wine improves to the point the dependency is no longer needed. Q:Should users be able to tag or should applications only be tagged by application maintainers. Q:Should the tags be standardised and say based on bugzilla's Component list used when reporting bugs. How do you believe it should work? -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

One thing I could think of is to re-implement the categories system based on tags, so that an application could belong to several categories. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

Hanson <jhansonxi(a)gmail.com> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |jhansonxi(a)gmail.com --- Comment #8 from Jeff D. Hanson <jhansonxi(a)gmail.com> --- I would like to see this implemented to replace categories. I often have apps that belong to more than one category. Tags allow for multiple associations that a category tree does not. However, while I agree that declaring dependencies is useful (bug #42089), I don't think that tags are appropriate for that. There are too many combinations of app versions, dependency versions, and architectures which would greatly complicate tag management. For most reporters it would be overwhelming to determine Wine component dependencies. Automation would be required (although that raises some ideas for statistical analysis of library and function call popularity). -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=17613 --- Comment #9 from Rosanne DiMesio <dimesio(a)earthlink.net> --- Missing from this discussion is any mention of keywords, which the AppDB has always had and which we can now even search by. What would the proposed tagging system offer that can't be accomplished with keywords? -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.
