I really appreciate Ezio and Berker working on PEP 595, so we can put all these issues on the table. I think one of the most important tradeoffs is balancing the needs of existing developers (those who actively triage bugs today), and future contributors. But this and other UX issues are difficult to compare on our actual data right now. I fully expect that just as with the switch to git, we’ll do lots of sample imports and prototyping to ensure that GitHub issues will actually work for us (given our unique requirements), and to help achieve the proper balance. It does us no good to switch if we just anger all the existing devs. IMHO, if the switch to GH doesn’t improve our workflow, then it definitely warrants a reevaluation. I think things will be better, but let’s prove it. -Barry -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
