I don't know about a CMS but it does need a proper review. Our patches are bandaids.
Indeed and a CMS may offer a heal to all everlasting patches otherwise needed. Many of my bug reports/comments are partial if not full AppDB test results but AppDB updates are completely absent from my workflows so there is a gap that may be bridged to support for linking bug comments to AppDB entries and vice versa. AppDB currently only supports linking to bug IDs but not comment ids and Bugzilla only supports linking one AppDB entry per bug ID. Duplicate bugs should not be required/created just to link separate AppDB entries. Supporting AppDB links to bug comments would offer more granularity. Bugzilla reporters often leave out relevant information that AppDB links may help solve such as app versions and distro info. If most Bugzilla comments resembled ProtonDB comments/test results it would help save time requesting missing info and reduce the noise it causes: - https://www.protondb.com/app/289070 AppDB approval process may cause bottlenecks for comment level linking however but removing approvals altogether risks flooding maintainers with overwhelming cleanup efforts so some balance may be required which ProtonDB may have found. Much content already dumped to Bugzilla/Gitlab, especially screenshots and comments constituting test results, may benefit from the ability to be linked to a CMS which may then have flexibility to be reorganized in a form equivalent to AppDB/ProtonDB and more. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.
