The question is what items are really useful and whether TGW provides sufficient options. One example of an item that is significantly different between Bugzilla and TGW is the Component selection. In Bugzilla, this is just one of the form items, for which we have to maintain a list of offered items. The current list is incomplete - there are no individual applications, so the usefulness of this item is reduced for now. At the same time, adding items would probably result in a long, not very clear list. In TGW, the approach is quite the opposite. Each component is a GIT repository and each GIT repository actaully has its own list of Issues. Therefore, there is no need to maintain a list of components - this is done automatically. At the same time, it does not limit the search for issues across components. Yes, this method limits the ability to move issues between components. However, it is possible to solve it easily and as a result very clearly. If an issue is reported in one of the components - for example in main 'tde' component and the analysis specifies that the root of cause is in another component, new issues will be created in the relevant component, and this new issue will reference / follow up on the issue in the originally reported component. As a result, the information will continue to be traceable in the original component. I think other useful items are usually just the title and comments. And for these items, there is no fundamental difference in the search between Bugzilla and TGW. Therefore, the more comprehensive search options in Bugzilla do not seem to me to be a very strong argument. Therefore, the goal remains to replace Bugzilla with Isuses in TGW. Cheers -- Slávek
