Description (last modified by scribu)

I just submitted my first bug report to jQuery today. They use trac too, but they added a couple of things to the ticket creation page which I think would be pretty useful here too:

  • big red notice: "Are you in the right place?"
  • automatically search for similar tickets before pressing submit

See ​http://bugs.jquery.com/newticket

Didn't we have some instructions that appeared with a new ticket, within the last year or so? I remember something but don't see it any more.

  • Description modified (diff)
  • Summary changed from Reduce number of invalid or duplicate tickets to automatically search for similar tickets

The instructions are back: ​http://wpdevel.wordpress.com/2011/02/16/trac-improvements/

Note: See TracTickets for help on using tickets.
