But many of us were using it precisely *for* this. The removal seems to
have been based on the assumption that 'See also' was *only* being used
for referring to external bugs, but this was not in fact the case at
all. I used it exclusively for referring to other bugs within BRC which
were *relevant*, but not *duplicates* or *dependencies*. "External
Trackers" does not cover this at all. To my mind they were quite
different features.
Exactly! I don't think I've wver seen see-also pointing
to an external bug,
it was always used to link related bugs in the Red Hat Bugzilla instance
& that's how I always used it as well.
