Launchpad itself

Questions transformed into bugs should be reversable

Asked by Kit Blake

Hi, the option to "Create a bug based on question" works nicely. I can think of two uses cases for having it go the other way:

1. A question became a bug and turned out not to be a bug.
2. Imports from issue trackers (as opposed to bug trackers): issue trackers often have a category of 'bug' as well as other issues that are wishlist items or ongoing discussions. When importing from those issue trackers into Launchpad, suddenly there are a lot of bugs! My team would like to transform some of the newly imported Silva bugs into questions.

Could you make bugs transformable to questions?

Hello kitblake,

there's a bug report about it requesting that feature. I linked it to this question. The Answer tracker was recently renamed to answer tracker so that's why some old bugs refer to questions as [support,tickets] requests.

Cheers.
