Re: [dash-dev] IP Cleanliness question

Here it is:

https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=166285

A new menu option in Committer tools, called Initiate an IP
discussion using IPZilla has been created.  Using this option, committers can
open new IPBugs to discuss IP issues.

I'm guessing with the transition from Committer Tools > Portal this functionality got lost.  At the very least, I think Aaron should be CC'd on the discussion CQ so that he can participate.

I'll reopen the bug.  Something about it just doesn't seem right.

Could be -- but I implemented that functionality, and I don't remember that to be part of the design.  I'll look into it.

I'm guessing it's just an accident of how the IP system was setup, e.g. no set of permissions set up for IP questions vs. actual CQs.

Sure, for CQs, but this is discussion involving licensing and copyright
initiated by a member of our community (and a committer, no less).  I
don't understand why such discussion would need to happen behind closed
doors, especially considering we advocate openness and transparency.
+1

I could understand if comments were disabled for CQs to keep them clean
but why completely hide them? Is that a legal matter (NDA or something)
or a social matter (avoid bad blood, heated discussions, trolling)?
