*** Bug 420786 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Dunno if this is actually possible to do in Discover, or if it required instead fixing Bug 433485. This bug seems like a duplicate of bug 312325. Since this is one of the bugs in the 15-minute initiative, can a developer mark this as a duplicate and change the importance of 312325 to HI normal to make it show up in the list? Oh, you're right! *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 312325 *** |
