Description Jan Synacek 2018-12-20 09:08:58 UTC
See Also is *the* field that I used heavily for connecting related bugzillas together. Why was it removed? Bring it back. Thank you.

+1. It was most useful.

Comment 2 Jeff Fearn 🐞 2019-01-13 23:23:07 UTC
We don;t have the resources to maintain numerous similar systems, we have consolidate to ET's if there is a feature you'd like added then open and RFE for it.

Comment 3 Ankur Sinha (FranciscoD) 2019-01-15 10:21:01 UTC
I think this was meant to be the RFE. Can you please tell us what the procedure for opening an RFE is. Alternatively, can you tell us how the other system users are doing it without "see-also"?

Asking for see-also to be re-added is not asking for a feature to be added to External Trackers.

They are using External Trackers.

If we're being pedantic here, it still is an RFE. It's just not in the right place---so I've asked where it should be. Your comment was too cryptic for anyone not in the bugzilla development team to understand. "ET"?

Thanks.

Ah, now I know what "ET" means. I see "Redhat bugzilla" there already, so I guess nothing needs to be done. 

My other concerns seem to be brought up in the "external bug" that you've added to this bug.

Thank you for the clarifications.
