That would of course be possible (and desirable), but the mailing list is also called freebsd-sparc; I'd suggest renaming that, too.

Yes, > though it would require some work. If a check can be added to the code that detects a "Responsible" change, you could perhaps make use of something like: % ypcat passwd | grep -v '^[A-Z]' | awk '{print $1}' | grep '^freebsd-port$' ; echo $? 1 % query-pr --list-resp | awk '{print $1}' | grep '^freebsd-port$' ; echo $? 1 If both these commands fail, then the new responsible is neither a committer listed in YP/NIS nor a standard gnats responsible. Then perhaps, the change should be aborted with a message like: Invalid responsible "foo".

The 4G issue is resolvable now, as there is the KVA_PAGES option in FreeBSD. I had a personal discussion with Sheldon, and he said that it would be better if this PR was assigned to Matt, and also, I gave him the Message-IDs for the post which Terry made on how to resolve the 4G issue the hard way and the easy way. I will document this in the kernel configuration chapter, if needed. What do you think? > > i386/26812 (old bootstrap /sys/i386/boot/... still in -STABLE > branch) > Has this issue been resolved?

The patches are not committed, because I think this PR was forgotten by the developers. According to what Matt told me on the cvs-all list was "to leave all VM related changes to him", because of his experience in that part of the field. In a nutshell, this PR IMHO should be assigned to Matt for further investigation on this issue.

As now I understand what type of PRs can be _closed_ by the bugbusters@ list. Sorry for any inconvenience. :-) Do you think there can be any possibility for the GNATS DB, to automatically send email to the originator if a PR has been inactive for a specified timeframe?

IIRC (since I'm not online right now to check), this PR was submitted by Tom Rhodes. He has mentioned in private mail to me, that he wants to work on this a bit. The PR needs to stay open, awaiting for Tom's feedback. > > > i386/26736 (System freeze booting from (i386) 4.3 floppies) > > Why is this PR closable?

It's done automatically. Except for cases where one borks his mail address, gnats should be able to notify all the interested parties when anything changes about a PR. > > > i386/29096 ([no feedback from originator]) > > > > Too fresh. > > I will email the originator (cc: bug-followup@), > and see what he has to say. :) Cool.

No need to. If he doesn't respond in a month or so, it means he probably solved the problem, or doesn't care about it. When the PR closes, in a couple of months he will still be notified of the state change. It's very easy to reopen the PR, if the submitter replies and says "oh, I see you closed this, but I still have the same problem." > Understood.

I have a cronjob at freefall that runs weekly and outputs a simple text table of the PRs in 'feedback' and how long they have been unmodified. You might find the output of this useful. It's at: http://people.FreeBSD.org/~keramida/pr/feedback.txt Extracting the submitter's mail address and mailing them if the PR is in the feedback state for too long is something that I do manually until now, after I read the PR's audit trail and see what's in there... Of course, any code or ideas to improve this are welcome. Cheers, Giorgos.

I was editing the PR today, and changed both status and responsible. edit-pr(1) then opened $EDITOR window to learn the reason of the status change, then asked a confusing "Do you want to reuse the last message?" question to which I answered `y', it then opened $EDITOR with the same message again and I just pressed "ZZ". The result was (as you have probably guessed already) the duplicated reason for responsible change. (I've repaired the damage in the PR.)

It does, but it incorrectly said "status" instead of "responsible" because I'd forgotten to change the template. I fixed it last night.

Also, old version detected the case when you just left an editor with unmodified message, and offered you to re-edit or abord. Now it unconditionally commits the change. This new behavior is not good, and should be fixed.

Yes, it should print a message saying "blah changed from foo to bar" before asking that and / or launching the editor. > Also, old version detected the case when > you just left an editor with unmodified message, and offered you to > re-edit or abord. Uh, I can't remember it ever having done that - in fact, I found out the hard way, several times, that it didn't. Check the CVS history of the databases/gnats port; it's possible that the feature was there a long time ago but was removed (wither on purpose or by accident).
