Issue status update for http://drupal.org/node/19847 Project: Drupal Version: cvs Component: tracker.module Category: feature requests Priority: normal Assigned to: Anonymous Reported by: gordon Updated by: moshe weitzman Status: active it is more than just subsituting comments for followups. issues use the node_revisions api to store the field history of each followup. changing that would be a very big rewrite. the only way to implement what gordon suggests is to keep the revision stuff but make commenting an unrelated action. in other words, when you add a comment, you could not change the status, component, etc. those would need a different edit operation. as for comment uploads, i think that could b e solved by b uilding out hook_comment() so it has the same operations as hook_nodeapi(). then upload_comment() would handle this task just like it does today for nodes. moshe weitzman Previous comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ April 1, 2005 - 20:16 : gordon When looking at a tracker/user/{uid} can it also include as it does for comments posted against nodes responses to issues that you have posted to. Esp. being a developer, this would make it sop much easier to monitor posts that you have made, and continue the conversations. This post I will be able to track as I am the author, but any I am not the author but a contributer to the conversation I cannot follow as easily. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ April 2, 2005 - 05:22 : Junyor I think part of the problem is that project.module has its on comments. I'd vote for integrating project.module with comment.module (and extending comment.module to allow attachments to comments). ------------------------------------------------------------------------ April 2, 2005 - 07:59 : gordon It would be better to use the comment module for the project module, except for the fact that comments don't allow for file uploads. I do feel this is a large usability issue for drupal.org, and would make life much easier if this was remedied.
