I don't suppose you've changed your mind on also removing the obsolete OS's (BSDI, AIX, IRIX, HP-UX, SunOS, OS/2, Mac OS X < 10.3)?
Did he say he wasn't for it? I didn't catch that. Dan, here's a vote for removing those. I can't comment on all of them, but SunOS has been obsolete for a decade, OS/2 nearly as long.
He's referring to an old discussion we had. I'm ok with deleting any that have zero valid instances in the bug tracker and are obsolete. All the SunOS instances should really be Solaris, I think.
Yes, they should be. They're all mine, I've moved them.
So IRIX, SunOS, and OS/2 can go now. We do have one (abandoned but recent) real bug against HP-UX and HP, so maybe it's not quite time to delete those (but we should rename HP as HP-PA to keep people with HP PCs from choosing it).
If it's worth keeping an extra platform/OS for one bug, I suppose. Could simply set it to 'other'.
Why do we have versions on Mac OS X? How about we combine them all?
It can make a big difference in the bug. The X.org version in OS X (partially?) depends on what OS X version you have. Some bugs will only show up in Tiger, because Leopard has them fixed on Apple's end. (Someone correct me if I'm wrong here, this is based off of what I've seen on wine-users).
