I would guess that you have to make an account to participate in 
any GitHub things.

Why pretend that theres a system for bugs? If someone has a bug 
1) 95% its probably a known usual suspect b) if you want to fixed 
your going to be have to be a noisy baby bird

Great work Robert! I think this is important work, and makes 
things more accessible for others to either report bugs or 
otherwise allow for new contributors to fix bugs :)

Yeah, nar... I kinda reckon you need to find as way to suppress mailing out
thousands of spam emails to every subscriber to the big database before
clicking the go button? Maybe blanket-unsubscribe everyone from the old
issue tracker before migrating? Just drop the whole subscriber table in the
database...

So not everyone had 1000 issues in the database. So for the guy 
who opened one issue 2 months ago, instead of never hearing from 
dlang again, he gets a note that he has to jump on GitHub and 
subscribe to the new issue.

I searched for the appropriate text (not hard to find the common

Bugzilla has a bad habit of adding people to tickets when you comment on it.

So you would have interacted with each of the tickets to get the email.

Not everyone got the same number as you.

I only got ~12.

Honestly, that seems like a _good_ habit to me, since if you commented on
it, presumably, you care about it. I'd miss a lot more if I had to remember
to manually subscribe to each bug that I commented on. But either way, it's
a moot issue with regards to D stuff going forward, since we'll be using
github instead, for better or worse, and we'll get whatever behavior they
have. I _think_ that they also subscribe you to any issues that you comment
on, but I haven't reported or commented on issues much on github previously,
so I don't remember for sure. I guess that I'll have to watch out for that.


 So you would have interacted with each of the tickets to get the email.

I also got quite a few e-mails, and I likely would have gotten _way_ more if
the migration bot were commenting on issues that had been closed as well.
But I'm also perfectly fine with getting e-mails for all of the various
issues that I've created or commented on. It helps me keep track of things.

Are you talking about emails from bugzilla, or GitHub? I notice

Yeah, sure; I deleted them. I just think that emailing hundreds or
thousands of emails to potentially hundreds or thousands of people is
bad-form... it just feels like a "yeah, you just don't do that" kind of
thing to me. YMMV.
I just thought it was worth a mention, since there was likely to be more...
now I'm just astonished this is somehow controversial.

I think everyone agrees that GitHub sending people a seperate 
email for every moved issue is undesirable. Just some people 
think Bugzilla sending an email to each participant of every 
moved issue is reasonable.

There are exactly 108 watchers in the Phobos repository, and 158 
in the dmd repository. When dmd/druntime issues get moved, a 
subset of those 158 watchers (depends on exactly what they watch) 
will receive a few thousand emails in my estimation, which is 
annoying, but when they tell GitHub to get notified of "all 
activity", I don't know if there's a way to override that. If 
there is, I suggest Robert to use it.

Otherwise, we'll just have to bit the bullet and get it over with.

Well, you're making the assumption that no one would want these e-mails,
which I very much doubt is valid. As a general rule, if someone doesn't want
to be notified of changes to bugzilla issues that they reported or commented
on, they can unsubscribe from them. And sure, this is potentially a lot of
e-mails this time around, since all of the open bugs are being affected at
once, but it's only going to be once, and it tells you something about which
open issues you're currently subscribed to, which some people are going to
be interested in.

So, while I do think that it's perfectly understandable if you didn't want
any of these e-mails, I don't agree that it would have been a good idea to
simply not send them out to anyone.

Though personally, now I have to go and figure out how I'm going to have to
rework my filters to deal with the fact that we're going to now be using
github issues instead. I don't even know what I'm going to be get e-mailed
by default, and it wouldn't surprise me if I end up missing some stuff until
I get all of that sorted out. But such is life, I suppose.

Not sure what to tell you. I understand your annoyance, but I 
think its still
the right thing to do.

Tell you what, I'll buy you dinner at the next DConf I see you.

On a less happy note, did you check which phobos issues could be

I think the complaint is about 1000+ emails, more than receiving 
any notification at all. For instance, if there were logic that 
if a user would receive more than ten emails, then there would be 
some kind of special aggregation for them such that they just get 
a single email listing all the issues, then I think that would 
resolve manu's complaint.

I received several hundred emails, and then had to spend ages deleting them
all... I couldn't select-all because they spanned like 10 pages, and I had
to de-select the real emails interleaved among them.
I'm gonna go way out there on the limb and say, I am completely confident
that nobody wants that.

Thanks! Will the [issues

people comment/file issues on GitHub? I commented 
[here](https://github.com/dlang/phobos/issues/9882#issuecomment-2511215440) but
there's no update yet, maybe too soon.

Personally, I most definitely want that. I keep all such e-mails, and I have
e-mail filters which put them in the correct folders. No manual processing
is required, and I have all of those e-mails to search through when I need
to. I can totally understand that it's annoying to have to manually go

with that sort of thing, and it's not exactly new that bugzilla e-mails
about any comments or changes to bug reports that you're subscribed to. It's
just that on this particular occasion, a whole bunch of issues got commented
on at once because of the migration. Either way, it's a one time thing (or I
guess, a two time thing, since the dmd/druntime issue still need to be
moved), and that's the end of it.

For me at least, the annoying part about the messages is that I now have to
rework my filters to deal with github sending me e-mails about issues for
these repos, and I need to separate those out from e-mails about PRs,
whereas before, I could just put all of the e-mails for each repo in a
folder for that repo and mostly be able to rely on them all being PR-related
e-mails. But that's just life when we change the service we're using for bug
reports.

Just an FYI for anyone trying to adjust their e-mail filters so that PRs and
issues from github go into separate folders...

While the project itself can be filtered on by the subject (e.g. e-mails
from github related to Phobos start with "[dlang/phobos]"), or by the "To"
header (e.g. "dlang/phobos <phobos noreply.github.com>"), there isn't any
such distinction between types of e-mails for a given project. After some
poking around, from what I can tell, it's the "Message-ID" header that needs
to be filtered on to get this information. For instance, one of the recent
e-mails I received for an issue for Phobos has

Message-ID: <dlang/phobos/issues/10346/2510910870 github.com>

whereas a recent e-mail about a PR has

Message-ID: <dlang/phobos/pull/10570/c2510278253 github.com>

Depending on your e-mail client, this could be a bit of a pain to filter on
(e.g. in mine, I have to search for "Message-ID: <dlang/phobos/issues"
within the entire message, since it doesn't let me filter on the
"Message-ID" header specifically), so this is kind of unfortunate, but at
least with how github is currently set up, it's the only way that I could
find. And since it took a bit of investigation to figure it out, I figured
that I'd pass the information along so that other folks wouldn't have to go
to that same effort.

 Personally, I most definitely want that. I keep all such e-mails, and I

 e-mail filters which put them in the correct folders. No manual processing

It indicates that that particular issue was open at the time that the
migration happened, and so it's part of the migration. It also gives the
link to the corresponding issue on github, making it easier to find.

Actually, looking at my e-mails again, it _is_ possible that you got e-mails
for every issue that was migrated. It depends on what you signed up for.
Bugzilla should only be sending you e-mails for issues that you created,
commented on, or otherwise subscribed to. However, there's also a mailing
list that sends e-mails for everything on dlang's bugzilla. Personally, I
have both with them set up with them going into separate folders. So, I can
see all of the bug-related stuff as it comes in (though I often end up
ignoring it), and I can see which issues are actually the ones that I'm
associated with in some fashion, since those end up in their own folder.

So, if you're signed up for the digitalmars-d-bugs puremagic.com mailing
list, then you'd be getting an e-mail for every issue that was migrated.
However, if you're not, then presumably, you created or commented on over a
thousand issues for Phobos that have yet to be resolved, since you got over
a thousand e-mails from the Phobos issue migration.

Some issues seem to be closed on bugzilla, but are still open on 
GitHub. Here is one example:
https://issues.dlang.org/show_bug.cgi?id=24288
https://github.com/dlang/phobos/issues/10539

The last comment on bugzilla is also missing on GitHub.

This query shows all resolved issues, which were also moved to 
GitHub:

Not quite fool-proof, but AFAIK the subject of PR and issue messages 
always ends with `(PR #xxxxxx)` and `(#xxxxxx)`, respectively. Or simply 
use a proper e-mail client like thunderbird that allows arbitrary 
filtering of custom fields such as list-id and message-id. ;)

Can you wait a bit before doing DMD for me to fix/group labels?

And definitely make sure that the DMD issues have a dedicated

Specifically please map
* the Severity field to `Severity:Foo` labels, not `Foo`.
* the operating System field to `OS:Foo`

The migration should not create any new labels that don't exist 
(except for the priority P1-P5 labels), with the notable 
exception of a DMD label.

I can. Done. :)

- I followed the nice guide 
[here](https://docs.devzing.com/make-bugzilla-read-only/), except 
I didn't bother creating the "canstilledit" group. Admins can 
still edit anyway.
- I also added a banner on every page and disabled creating new 
user accounts.
- I don't think there's a way to disable posting comments from 
existing users. I guess we'll just have to live with the risk of 
someone reopening a flamewar there for now.

Well I don't want to disrupt the thread, but I understand the 
other user. I think people are giving too much power to one 
entity and don't know if this is good way.

I'm not a gh user (Registered) but I used to look over source 
code there, but now you need to register to read some comments 
and to search over the source, this is just terrible.

Now about the grow of the community because everything is on gh 
we need to wait and see.
