Bodhi karma feature request

Split off from the stable pushes in Bodhi thread just because I'd like to see it not get lost.

Maybe instead of just +1 -1, there should be: Fixes my problem Works for me (someone testing that didn't necessarily have any of the problem supposedly fixed by this update just noting that their system still works ok with the update) Doesn't fix my problem (but doesn't necessarily imply it's any worse than before) Causes new problems (which should, IMO, be an automatic veto of any push to stable, requiring intervention to override) I could see situations where you would want to push updates to stable if say the update was supposed to solve multiple bugs, but turns out it only solves a subset of those bugs and doesn't cause new ones, so you would have some FMP, maybe some WFM, some DFMP, but no CNP. You'd probably just need to leave it up to the maintainer to decided if the bugs that are solved are important enough to push to stable before respinning another attempt at the ones that weren't solved. I've personally seen situations where this would be helpful with the mdadm package when I had 5 or 6 bugs on a single update and only 4 of them were actually solved. The update was still worth pushing while I worked on the others again. If you really wanted to get fancy, the FMP/DFMP options could be tied to specific bugzillas reported against the update, and if you get a FMP for each bugzilla listed in the update, plus at least 1 WFM, then you could automatically push to stable. Would be much better than the 3 random +1s you get now that don't indicate anything about test coverage or anything like that. Also FMP/DFMP karma against a bug could be noted both in the bodhi ticket as well as in the bug itself with a resultant VERIFIED/FAILS_QA toggle to the bug status. -- Doug Ledford <dledford(a)redhat.com&gt; GPG KeyID: CFBFF194 http://people.redhat.com/dledford Infiniband specific RPMs available at http://people.redhat.com/dledford/Infiniband
