I'd like to overhaul the GRUB BTS in Savannah so that it can be used to track bugs in (or feature requests for) GRUB 2. What I propose to do is review all bugs, and: - If the bug is obviously specific to GRUB Legacy, close it. - If the bug was found in GRUB Legacy, but might apply to GRUB 2, prompt the submitter to reproduce it there (and close it). I don't think the BTS in its current state is any useful to us; patches and bug reports are currently overwhelming the mailing list, which make it less useful for actual discussion. Comments? -- Robert Millan I know my rights; I want my phone call! What use is a phone call, if you are unable to speak? (as seen on /.)
