Description Jean-François Fortin Tam 2014-01-29 17:28:26 UTC
As a module maintainer, I'd like to be able to have notifications when the name of my project/module is mentioned in a public channel, though I'd like to have exceptions to the rule.

So, for example, whenever someone mentions "pitivi" (case insensitive) in #gstreamer I'd like to be notified, but when someone says "pitivi" in the #pitivi channel, that's just a "normal" conversation that does not require highlighting.

I could imagine a preference UI where you can add some simple highlighting "rules" in a dialog:


   Notify me when this text is said: [ bananas    ]


   (o) For all rooms
       Except: [ #gnome-hackers #gstreamer        ]

   ( ) Only for these rooms: [ #donkeykong        ]



Or, perhaps more simply (there are various ways to design such a UI):


   Text to highlight: [ bananas       ]
   [x] Except in these rooms: [ #gnome-hackers #gstreamer     ]

Would be pretty nifty.

GNOME is going to shut down bugzilla.gnome.org in favor of gitlab.gnome.org.
As part of that, we are mass-closing older open tickets in bugzilla.gnome.org
which have not seen updates for a longer time (resources are unfortunately
quite limited so not every ticket can get handled).

If you can still reproduce the situation described in this ticket in a recent
and supported software version of Polari, then please follow
  https://wiki.gnome.org/GettingInTouch/BugReportingGuidelines
and create a new ticket at
  https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/polari/-/issues/

Thank you for your understanding and your help.
