launchpad developmentThe purpose of this template is to help us get ReadyToCode on features or tricky bugs as quickly as possible. See also LaunchpadEnhancementProposalProcess.
Better Bug Subscriptions and Notifications
We should make subscribing to bugs something people want to do, not dread.
As an Ubuntu developer
I want control over my Launchpad subscriptions
so that I can get less noise and higher qaulity notices from Launchpad.
note: there is the upstream dev story to consider, too, i.e. making subscribing to my software's package more attractive.
Consider clarifying the feature by describing what it is not?
Rationale
Why are we doing this now?
What value does this give our users? Which users?
Stakeholders
Who really cares about this feature? When did you last talk to them?
In particular, Ubuntu developers who are subscribed to large numbers of packages. In general, anyone who receives a lot of bug mail.
- bdmurray
- leanne
- cjwatson
- pitti
- seb123

XXX - someone from an upstream project?
Constraints
What MUST the new behaviour provide?
What MUST it not do?
Subfeatures
Other LaunchpadEnhancementProposals that form a part of this one.
Workflows
What are the workflows for this feature? Provide mockups for each workflow.
You do not have to get the mockups and workflows right at this point. In fact, it is better to have several alternatives, delaying deciding on the final set of workflows until the last responsible moment.
Success
How will we know when we are done?
How will we measure how well we have done?
Thoughts?
Put everything else here. Better out than in.
