[Gluster-devel] Automated bug workflow

[Rafi Kavungal Chundattu Parambil]

Since we have some common interest in proposed design, IMHO let's start doing the implementation by keeping all of this valuable suggestions in mind.

If any one interested to volunteer this project, please reply to this thread.

I like to do this manually.

I like to do this manually too... but automation does not hurt, esp. 
when I control when the bug moves to POST.

This I would like automated, as I am not tracking when it was released 
(of sorts). But, if I miss the nightly boat, I assume the automation 
would not pick this up, as a result automation on the MODIFIED step is 
good, as that would take care of this miss for me.

Overall, we can have all of this, but I guess I will possibly never use 
the POST automation and do that myself.
