I have added full text searching to my tracker. I only index the first
50 KB of each message. There's apparently a one MB limit on that
anyway, which a few messages exceed. I figure anything important is
probably in the first 50KB. I could be wrong. I could re-index fairly
easily. It seems to work pretty well.
I have changed the 'stale' status to 90 days. I have triaged most of
the remaining bugs with a message count > 1. This is in a separate
file if it some other system wants to collect the work.
I am still working out exactly how to find multiple matching commits
along different branches. I'm running git patch-id on every commit,
but that will take a while.
Later tonight I will implement some in-message-body update syntax I'm
also going to create (internally) a web page for the bugs that allows
editing the status from that page. I will post the details on that
once I've tested it a bit. I'll probably make a web page allowing
updates as well.
How often are the bugs mail list archives updated? I've got a bunch of
posts to the bugs list in my inbox that aren't in the archive download.
