[GNC] Volunteers for a triage teem; was: Gnucash logs

[D.]

Frank, 

This is an interesting, but misleading point in this case, given that this request has been around since at least 2008 in bug form (bug 527432 seems to be the earliest, although it is marked a duplicate of a different yet still open bug for the same issue, bug 619119), and is already cross linked to/from uservoice in bug 638858. The bug's reference to uservoice was added in 2016, as was the initial corresponding reference from uservoice to bugzilla. This latter reference was updated in 2018 when bugzilla moved to our domain. 

So, in this case, there is and has been precisely the kind of notification that you are suggesting should be in place, and yet it hasn't attracted any developer attention. That's why I added the note I did.

David T.

the problem is, our current core team, which is watching
bugs.gnucash.org, is too small to watch also uservoice. Christian
Stimming had once set up gnucash.uservoice.com, but in between his
family get priority.

Are there experienced users like you, who volunteer to create the links
in both directions beween gnucash.uservoice.com and
bugzilla.gnucash.org? If no corresponding bugzilla entry exists, create one.

You would get aministrative rights to update the public status of the
ideas at uservoice, where you should add the corresponding bugzilla URL.
In bugs.gnucash.org you would set the uservoice URL in the URL field.

So developers scanning bugzilla would see there are more users
interested than only the reporter.
