Let's discuss https://bugs.centos.org https://bugs.centos.org !
For a long time, we used to only have one public tracker , powered by MantisBT (https://mantisbt.org/ https://mantisbt.org/) , and it was https://bugs.centos.org https://bugs.centos.org
Due to various changes in the CentOS ecosystem in the last years, some categories were removed/migrated elsewhere :
- CentOS infra tracker : https://pagure.io/centos-infra/issues https://pagure.io/centos-infra/issues - CentOS Stream : https://bugzilla.redhat.com https://bugzilla.redhat.com
Some other SIGs also started to have (and document) their own tracker (see https://wiki.centos.org/ReportBugs https://wiki.centos.org/ReportBugs)
So the question is : while we can easily migrate bugs.centos.org http://bugs.centos.org to el9, should we ?
All comments/remarks are welcome, and let's have a plan about what to do
I think it would be best to sunset this by locking and keeping the system as read-only after the 2024 end of CentOS Stream 8 and CentOS 7. At that point it can be scraped and put on archive.org http://archive.org or something similar and 'removed' with a 'thank you for your hard work'.
Not a lot of momentum/traction on this thread, so that summarizes it all I guess :) It's true that https://bugs.centos.org isn't even used at all by centos stream team , nor infra team so I just intend to decommission it entirely ASAP, and I'll just send mail when I'll do that (as hypervisor on which that VM is running needs also be reinstalled). I don't see a benefit in moving that VM/service is nobody is using it and keeping it running on c7 until 2024 when we'll just shut it down anyway.
So, famous last words : "speak now or stay quiet forever" :)
FWIW, I'll shutdown that service/instance in two weeks from now, remove it from DNS and we can then update https://wiki.centos.org/ReportBugs (itself disappearing soon) to reflect that it will be either Stream related (so going to bugzilla.redhat.com) or infra related (and so on pagure.io/centos-infra/issues)
