I would keep this as a update after the release is out ( like they 4
ruby cve, libzip one ( CVE-2011-0421 )) and others that came out since
yesterday.
So maybe we could open bugs for this ?
There is 2 proposal :
- filling them on security, and have a saved search
- creating a tracker bug
I would be in favor of the tracker bug :
- you can subscribe to it
- it will be clearer ( as bugfixes are not security so we may miss some
update to do )
- it doesn't pollute the list of saved search
But as pascal said, a tracker bug requires that each bug to be linked to
it, which is manual and error prone.
Any opinion on this ( or a 3rd proposal ) ?
