Description Eugene Kuleshov CLA 2005-08-12 20:52:38 EDT
Please add creation date and last update columns to the task list and allow
to sort by these columns. If should also show real creation and update dates
for entries in bugzilla. Sorting by description does not give the right order
when bug id's have different sizes.
Comment 1 Mik Kersten CLA 2005-08-15 14:22:26 EDT
Another good idea, especially since it is common to be working on many bug
reports of the same priority.  We may not have time for it this week so marking
as P3.

Fyi, for our bug priority conventions see:

Comment 2 Mik Kersten CLA 2005-11-15 16:06:14 EST
The Task List doesn't know about bug reports, but it could have a generic notion
of task fields that would allow custom columns to be shown.  For generic tasks
common columns of interest could be:
- creation date
- elapsed time
- reminder
Additionally for bug reports bug attributes such as:
- reporter
- last update
- severity
- target milestone
- keywords

A nice property is that it should be possible to make the additional columns
searchable using the quick filter.  This change could involve refactoring tasks
to have a generic notion of attributes insted of all the current getter methods.
