[Koha-devel] SPAM in bugzilla: what do we do ?

[Katrin]

Hi all,

those are real 'spam bugs' - the content is totally unrelated to Koha 
and just lengthy nonsense. When I see one of them going through the 
daily bug email I mark all the comments as 'private' so they no longer 
show and also change the title of the bug to 'SPAM'.  So if we want to 
delete them, which is not possible from the GUI, we can easily find them.

But it's not true we are leaving no trace - every bug has a history. For 
example:
https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_activity.cgi?id=17276

You can also see the former bug title there. if you take a look at the 
koha-bugs list archive, you will probably find the full former content 
there.
