Finding bugs that affect you
Tuesday, October 4th, 2011We’ve recently deployed two features that make it easier to find bugs that you’re previously said affect you:
1: On your personal bugs page, there’s now an Affecting bugs that shows all these bugs.
2: On a project, distribution or source package bug listing page, there’s now a “Bugs affecting me” filter on the right (for example, bugs affecting you in the Launchpad product).
Counts of the number of affected users already help developers know which bugs are most urgent to fix, both directly and by feeding into Launchpad’s bug heat heuristic. With these changes, the “affects me” feature will also make it easier for you to keep an eye on these bugs, without having to subscribe to all mail from them.
