If TFS was written by Google

After spending an afternoon fidlling with some code to programatically change code analysis configuration (and banging my head against the wall) i finally figured that  there is a bug in the EnableFXCop property setter <legal disclaimer>allegedely  bug</legal disclaimer>), i decided to post a bug report in Connect.

 

After reporting the bug, i noticed that a guy called G. Tarazi had just posted a bug entitled If TFS was written by Google?. With such a title how could i not click it? Here is the his full description:

 

Description

If TFS was written by Google I would had real search, not filter a query like in TFS, I would have written a keyword, and suddenly had all the results in front of me, finding work items would have been easier, finding C# would have been simpler, finding change sets would have been painless :)

If TFS was written by Google, we would had the MSN search team doing everything possible to compete with Google and give us a “better TFS search”

Eh Google, why don’t you write a TFS client, there is so much revenue there, you can have a code marketplace on your fingertips for example, so I can write a new module of code, or just buy it from the market place, and I am ready to have an add banner always on in VS.NET, just give us a real search :)

 

Not happy with this, he even added a proposed solution (again fully quoted)

Proposed Solution

Nothing from Microsoft is required, will hope someone else like Google or yahoo implements it :)

Got to admire this guy nerve. :-)

[Updated: noticed i had forgotten to post a link to the bug report.]

I added the bug to my Watch list, just to see Microsoft response, i wonder if they show the same sense of humor that they have demonstrated in the oPhone video. :-)
