That's what I allways dreamed from in OOo!!

      Nice - so - I guess we can do still better. It would be -really- nice
if we could cut/paste a block of text (perhaps a non-human-readable
chunk) that we could parse in javascript to auto-fill-out many of the
fields accurately:

      platform / exact version / enabled extensions /
      java version / etc. etc.

      I'll add this as an easy hack.

      As/when we have a defined URL, we could add a 'file a bug' link that
could even auto-populate that. Lots of fun is possible. First we need
some draft of the form / flow / wizard[in a single page] to fill in to
file the bug I think.

Good news. LibO will make the race!! :o))

      If we can get people excited and contributing, make QA a fun job
instead of a duplicate triaging nightmare etc. we'll do well :-) thanks
for your support.

      ATB,

              Michael.

Hardly. Now you've got two things that can go wrong for a bug report.
Sure it's less the user has to remember, but now you're relying the user
being able to reliably copy/paste for the bug report too - information that
may not be easily accessible - e.g. if they can't run the software due to it
crashing, perhaps without generating the crash report manager.

Why bother? If you can do that, then you can just as easily have it load the web 
page
in a browser for the user to simply review and sign off on, or even just have 
another
dialog come up that directly submits the information to the system without 
having to
go through a web browser - which would be even better to do so as to cover users
that don't necessarily have Internet access since you could then create a zip 
file and
give them instructions on what to do when they _do_ have Internet access (or 
provide
a means to send it at a later time).

Seriously, Thunderbird has a means to capture a crash report and save it for 
later
submittal. They recognize that not all users are able to access the Internet or 
their
mail system at all times. LibO needs to account for that too.

And no, copy/paste is not a step in the right direction here.

     "Version key (paste from help->about):"

I don't understand why this should have to be manually entered by the
user. 

Good question, short answer: There is no reason. At least no real
technical reason ...

At the OOoCon 2010 (and before), we already talked how to improve the
issue gathering and tracking from the user's and the supporter's
point-of-view. The current idea is a small first step to some agreement
between the different contributors ... because - from what I understand
- it is more the differences how the projects handle these issues, than
a technical problem.

The discussion at the OOoCon 2010 made clear to me, that - if people go
for such a (let's call it) automated issue gathering system, to say
"yes, software does contain bugs". And it requires some agreement across
different projects / Linux distributions how to harmonize such a system,
so that every contributor can have some benefit.

And here, the experience of the projects and the current workflows seem
to differ to such an extend, that the "given" manual system provides
reasonable flexibility. Another experience people talked about was, that
fixing the known bugs is already a lot of effort. But, I still consider
this "costly" for the users and the people doing the support on the
mailing lists.

However, we collected some ideas within the presentation / workshop ...
so if you like dynamic camera movements and emotional debates, then
please have a look at the conference video [1].

As strange as it sounds, I'm happy for each of the tiny improvements ...
and after a long time, we start to address these improvements. Okay, the
remaining comments might better be located on another mailing list :-)

Cheers,
Christoph

I don't know about others, but I, for one, NEVER send those automated 
crash reports. It feels a bit like big brother watching over my shoulder.

How do you expect problems to be resolved if they are not reported?

better:
* ask the user once at the beginning if he wants to report crashes and
list the information THERE
* NEVER include things like the current program's memory page dump or
something alike
* then DO NOT ask again but just send it

alternative:
* pop-up which sais that a crash report can be sent if the user wishes, but:
* it only has a input field where the user can say for himself what
happened and when
* checkbox saying something like: "include relevant data", where
"data" really leads to ALL the data being sent

The current problem is that hardly anyone trusts these crash reports -
that's what I experience when talking to friends about that issue. So
we first have to make the user think that something is being done.
I've repeatedly used the "Firefox made me sad"-thing but I've never
used the crash report before.

crash reports. It feels a bit like big brother watching over my shoulder.

You are kidding right?

Bug#'s? Thunderbird has never had a problem 'retrieving' our mail in our office, and we've been 
using it (40-60 users over the years) since about
version 0.8, so whatever your problem is/was, obviously it is/was
something fairly obscure.

The issue quite literally is: "Too many email accounts with too much
mail to be retrieved".

I'm not sure there is a "guide" as such, but you could go chat to the
devs on IRC, or write to the devs' mailing list. You can also browse
the "how to contribute" section of the main site, and have a look at
the wiki... I've pasted lots of useful links below [1] (including
links to the various resources I mentioned).

HTH. Welcome to the community. :-)
