Description zeroj 2001-04-26 14:33:49 UTC 
When I type in the above URL in most browsers, a list of matching URLS appears 
show all URLs that match that URL.  buglist.cgi and show_bug.cgi should be at 
the top of that list.  This could be done by renaming show_bug.cgi to bug.cgi

AFAIK, the above URL correctly links to the OpenOffice.org IssueZilla Main 
Page. 

I can not duplicate, with the browsers to which I have access, the behavior 
described. 

BTW ... 
while admittedly simple in concept to implement, 
primary and secondary (i.e. support and maintenance) consequences of renaming 
are not insignificant.

As this relates to the technical infrastructure, 
reassigning to kat 
for ownership 
(to coordinate technical support as required toward resolution). 

Please accept issue (to change status from NEW to ASSIGNED). 

Please follow-up with reporter to confirm issue.

accepting issue for investigation. I have tried this with Netscape, IE and Lynx
and get the Issuezilla main page with all of these. Which browsers exhibit the
behavior you describe? 

Thank you,
Kat

In order to replicate this, you will need to actually type in the URL, and both 
IE and Mozilla will provide a drop down list of URLs that match the typed URL.  
When I do this, I get a mile-long list of createattachment.cgi? URLs which I 
would never want to use again.  

This is only an efficiency issue, that probably doesnt affect many, and hence I 
do not mind if it doesnt get fixed ... just thought I would raise the issue and 
see what others thought.

Ah - I see now what you are referring to.
 Yes, this may be nice to have but I do not see it as a high priority issue for
the roadmap. For now I am resolving this to won't fix so we may concentrate
resources on higher priority matters. 

Thank you
Kat

As mentioned on the qa dev list on March 5th I will close all resolved duplicate
issues. Please see this posting for details. First step in IssueZilla is
unfortunately to set them to verified.
