That was one of my long-term goals when I was bugmeister. Unfortunately, I never got around to implementing it. Briefly, this requires: - adding a new PR state, e.g. "fresh" - modifying Gnats to use "fresh" instead of "open" for incoming PRs, store them in a separate directory, and not send a receipt. - modifying the web query interface to *never, ever* show "fresh" PRs. - modifying the gnats cvsup collection to exclude the directory where "fresh" PRs are stored. - modifying Gnats to send "fresh" PRs to a closed list (to which only committers and / or bugbusters are allowed to subscribe) instead of -bugs, -ports etc. - creating tools for moving PRs from "fresh" to either "open" or "closed". When a PR moves from "fresh" to "open", a receipt is sent to the originator and the entire PR is mailed to -bugs, -ports or whatever. If anyone is interested in taking this on, I can offer further advice on how to implement the above requirements.
