[Printing-architecture] New issue on GitHub: Bug/Feature/Security selection screen

[Printing-architecture] New issue on GitHub: Bug/Feature/Security selection screen

[Till Kamppeter]

Hi,

now I have activated the functionality of reporting security bugs 
privately on all repositories of OpenPrinting, but unfortunately, in the 
web UI of GitHub it is not intuitive to find the way to the place for 
reporting a security issue privately.

When I am on your private GitHub, usually on PAPPL, and click the "New 
Issue" button on the Issues page, there appears a selection screen, to 
tell whether my report is about a bug, a feature request, or a security 
bug. The normal GitHub interface is that if I click on "New Issue" I am 
immediately in the form for a public issue report. The private one is 
hidden in the "Security" section ...

Other bug trackers, like good old Bugzilla or Launchpad allow you to 
choose between public and private in the bug input form.

How can I add such a selection page to the GitHub repos of OpenPrinting? 
Or could you add this feature?

    Till

Till,

The SECURITY.md file can easily provide a link.  Not sure the bug templates can, though... :/

But absolutely file an enhancement request to Github to make this more discoverable.

But how did you get this selection screen in your PAPPL repo?

I have found the trick with the selection screen now. I have copied

.github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/bug_report.md
.github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/feature_request.md

from your pappl repo into the cups-filters repo, committed it and got 
the selection screen. One entry for each of these files and an extra 
entry for security bugs.

Thanks anyway.

Till,

Create a .github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE directory, and populate it with the bug templates you want.
