More notes and reactions from DebConf video.
debbugs
Hadn't realised how handy bts select is!
My CVE-XXX-XXXX tags are a fairly large percentage of the 3000+ unique
user tags. 2461 to be exact. :-) It would be nice to be able to view a list
of all users of usertags, and their tags, in the BTS web interface.
Yay! Don implemented the summary idea already.
(And I implemented bts summary during his talk.)
Local partial debbugs mirror: Crazy idea, but better than bts cache. :-)
(And if it provides an incentive for a current and proper debbugs deb to
be maintained, that's a win.)
vcs-pkg
I won't bother once again repeating my responses to tired arguments like "git's archive format will change!" Been there, done that, been ignored; stopped maintaining any non-native packages; your loss.
Topgit looks generally handy, and it was neat to have its author on irc during the talk.
video team
Hundreds of remote watchers -- impressive..
Looking forward to the remote controlled telepresence robots at debconf 10!
(Also to a lack of tango loop music.)
