Choosing Krita's most annoying bugs and most sought after features

Here are my two tips to work with bugzilla to find interesting bugs:

1.) I usually start with this link:
http://bugs.kde.org/buglist.cgi?product=krita&bug_status=UNCONFIRMED&bug_status=NEW&bug_status=ASSIGNED&bug_status=REOPENED

Scroll down that page where you find "Change Columns" link. Open it
and add severity to your columns.
Then sort the bugs according the severity. Critical, major, crash
should be fixed.

2.) Next searches are with reporter - I pick our main long-around
artists usually:
David Revoy
https://bugs.kde.org/buglist.cgi?quicksearch=reporter%3Ainfo%40davidrevoy.com&list_id=193297
Animtim
https://bugs.kde.org/buglist.cgi?quicksearch=reporter%3Aanimtim%40gmail.com&list_id=193298

You can get the URL by this search query in bugzilla
reporter:email at server.com

And maybe also specify product:krita but I don't do that.

Cheers
Lukas

> My own POV answer:
> <Pentalis> well, it depends, we all hate crashes, but a crash that happens
> once a week is less annoying than a feature that doesn't work properly and
> you use it every 5 minutes

> exciting when you really wanted them.
