Different subsystems and drivers have different preferred ways of receiving bug reports; mailing list or bugzillas at various locations. Add "B:" entry for specifying the preference to guide bug reporters at the right location.

I think that "List" is not a good idea. Intermixing mailing list email addresses and URLs seems odd and inconsistent. Maybe there could be something like the "T:" and "S:" entries where some additional qualifier is used for the specific type of bug reporting.

I meant the word "List" verbatim as a keyword, indicating the bugs should be reported to the list specified by "L:". > Maybe there could be something like the "T:" and "S:" > entries where some additional qualifier is used for the > specific type of bug reporting. Maybe we can have a kernel summit session about this, and maybe have a patch merged by mid-2017. BR, Jani. -- Jani Nikula, Intel Open Source Technology Center

Yeah, if B: is present, use the given URL for bug reporting. If not use the mailinglist... :-) -- Thanks, //richard

I'd also like to encourage people to add URLs like https://bugzilla.kernel.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=ACPI&component=BIOS here to immediately lead the bug reporter to the correct product and component in the bug tracker.

Make it a proper URI, allowing mailto:<listname@domain> or http://bugzilla.org/i915/ or anything else that people may come up with in future :) .Dave.

That makes some sense. get_maintainer could then parse mailto: and http: schemes and could do the right thing.
