mspencerHow do I find out if a bug is really a bug and not a feature? It is in Unity.00:51
persiamspencer: Do you mean to ask whether a given behaviour was intended or not, or do you mean to ask whether a given behaviour should be preserved in the future or not?00:56
persiaIn either case, discussions with upstream are the best route to an answer.00:56
mspencerI mean was it intended to work the way it does.00:57
persiaBut it likely saves confusion to be very clear about the question, and avoid valued semantics "bug", "feature" in the hopes of not getting a canned response.00:57
mspencerSorry, I'm wondering for LP #1019457 if the dash is supposed to close or not, and how I would find out.00:58
ubot2Launchpad bug 1019457 in unity (Ubuntu) "The Dash closes when trying to switch to the Command lens (Alt+F2)" [Low,In progress] https://launchpad.net/bugs/101945700:58
mspencerWould I contact the Desktop Team for this?01:00
persiaYou want the upstream authors: the Desktop Team is probably a good place to start, and some upstream folk hang out in the desktop channel01:01
mspencerI asked an hour ago on #ubuntu-desktop but haven't gotten any response, so I wanted to check to see if that is where I should ask.01:02
mspencerShould I try the mailing list for the team?01:04
persiaI'd try asking during EU business hours: that seems to be when that team is most active.01:04
mspencerOkay, thanks.01:07

jmburgessHello. I'm trying to start 5-a-day and working on bug #1076387 would that be libmetacity-private0 or ubuntu-release-upgrader-core?19:44

jmburgessit seems like it's a libmetacity bug but I can't find anybody else who has the bug which is suspect19:45
