OK, I have made a *quick* pass through the whole thing and sent a small number of comments separately. There are things that could be tweaked (there always will be) but I'm not sure we should worry about those yet. I would suggest doing this: - Collapse the whole thing down to a patch adding reporting-bugs-v2.rst (or some suitable name). I do wonder if it should also move to the process manual as part of this; not only admins will report bugs. - Add a comment at the top saying it's a proposed replacement and soliciting comments. You could also put some of your other questions into the text for now and see if anybody reacts. - In a separate patch you could add a comment to the existing document pointing to the new one as the true source of wisdom. - Dual licensed CC-SA-4.0 is fine with me. CC-BY is OK if you really want to do it that way. Either way, though, you'll need to add the license itself under LICENSES/preferred before it can go into the SPDX tag. With that, I'd say let's just merge it and bash on it from there. Thanks, jon
