Hi folks,

I noticed a couple of items on the Bugzilla which I found surprising.

First, there appears to be some confusion among the existing community of Bugzilla users about why we are there. See for example:

https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=29061
https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=28661

Second, searching for AcaWiki bugs is currently impossible to do comprehensively:

- The link from [[AcaWiki:Communications]] searches on "acawiki" in the content, which misses bugs that don't mention acawiki but do have the AcaWiki component (e.g. 29061 as originally reported)
- Searching on component AcaWiki misses bugs too (e.g., 8390, 29061 now that it's been moved to a different component)

This could be solved by creating an AcaWiki keyword and adding that to the bug reporting link. Is this possible? Is it something I can just do?

Finally, is it useful to add acawiki-general AT lists.ibiblio.org to the default CC for bugs in the AcaWiki component? I don't see any familiar addresses in the bug I reported, and it seems useful to alert the community of problems people are reporting.

Thanks,

Reid
