RE: [eigen] Searchable "issues" repository

[<awf@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I know, it's a very friendly list, and I like having it in my inbox 😊  

But you know... it's a bit... not very modern, nor is bugzilla.  And I'm an old guy... 

And it feels like it's been a while since anyone suggested moving the project to github, so, er: should we move to github?  [takes cover]

Maybe even some kind of database which prioritizes and categorizes bugs and allows to express dependencies between bugs, like this:

   http://eigen.tuxfamily.org/bz/

I agree though that it is always difficult to decide when discussions should be made on the mailing list, and when they are too specific and should be made on bugzilla. Maybe the SparseMKL feature request would be worth moving to bugzilla.

OTOH, there is not that much traffic on this mailing list anyway, besides a lengthy discussion from time to time ...


Cheers,
Christoph
