Given that we now have a lot of co-operation amongst CentOS-RHEL-Fedora, I was hoping we could host CentOS bugs on RH's bugzilla instance itself under a CentOS product, just like how we have Fedora and RHEL products.
My guess is this should make life easier for people who file/deal with bugs related to all 3 distros.
I can certainly see the upside to such a move. A lot of CentOS bugs are actually bugs that need to be re-filed upstream with RedHat. If we were to use bugzilla then it should be possible to simply change the project from CentOS to RHEL in the bug itself rather than requiring that it be re-filed n bugzilla, saving a lot of time and grief and the ever present, "you've filed this bug in the wrong place, go file it in bugzilla for RHEL".
The main downside I can see, and one I would like to make sure doesn't happen before any such move is made is that the RedHat Bugzilla is known to close off a lot of bugs which would better serve the community if they were left public. It seems like when I see a bugzilla number mentioned in a RedHat changelog it is usually the case that I cannot view the bug entry in bugzilla. I would want to make certain that CentOS bugs, as well as bugs that initially filed for CentOS and then changed to RHEL, would remain publicly viewable except in the most extreme security cases, and even then they should be private for only as long as it takes to release a fix.
Could you provide some sample bug ids that were closed off to the public? I can forward this concern to the powers that be.
