Q: I get a lot of Bug mail - what do I do about it?

A: Launchpad Bug mails contain the X-Launchpad-Message-Rationale header. Check out Bugs/HowToFilter to see how to best filter it.


Q: I tend to often answer roughly the same when replying in bug reports. Did nobody ever think of using something like stock replies?

A: We did. Check out Bugs/Responses also try using Séb’s greasemonkey script.


Q: I’d like to write a script that extracts information from Launchpad Bugs - how do I do it?

A: Check out BugHelper/Dev/python-launchpad-bugs/Bug. Especially consider using the text connector - it should make access to bugs much faster:

import launchpadbugs.connector as Connector
Bug = Connector.ConnectBug(method="Text")
