Red Hat Bugzilla – Bug 237550
RFE: public technical info on otherwise private bugs.
Last modified: 2014-12-01 18:08:34 EST
Not sure if this is possible or not; feel free to WONTFIX if appropriate. Since often/usually we treat customer-reported bugs as customer-confidential, it makes it hard to share the *technical* details of the bug with anyone other than the reporter. We have the [ ] private checkboxes for comments, but that seems to be going the other direction - mark private what would otherwise be public. Would it be possible to perhaps have a [ ] public counterpart to [ ] private which makes *only* those marked comments public, regardless of overall bug permissions? Or some other means to very specifically and intentionally provide customer-info-free summary information for a particular bug, so that when other customers or partners see something in the changelog, they can get the -technical- background & reason for the change? Thanks, -Eric
Red Hat Bugzilla is now using version 3.4 of the Bugzilla codebase and therefore this feature will need to be implemented against the new release. Updating bug version to 3.2.
Red Hat has now upgraded to Bugzilla 3.6 and this bug will now be reassigned to that version. It would be helpful to the Bugzilla Development Team if this bug is verified to still be an issue with the latest version. If it is no longer an issue, then feel free to close, otherwise please comment that it is still a problem and we will try to address the issue as soon as we can. Thanks Bugzilla Development Team
