Bugtracker category Raytracing is now obsolete or mis-named since RenderWB has superceded it

Post by Kunda1 »

So Raytracing WB was deprecated in favor of Render WB. We still have a bugtracker category called 'Raytracing'. How should we proceed?
We rename it?
Deprecate it?
Close all tickets and move them to the Github RenderWB repo?

AFAIC, I would vote for renaming it into Render... It would be a convenient way to collect bugs, we can reference it in Render's Readme!

You would prefer mantis to github tickets?
It is technically an external workbench

Besides, Raytracing bug/features likely won't translate "as is" to Render..
I'll have a look there and try to migrate or close what is possible

@Kunda1 After a bit of thinking: yes, you must be right, one entry point, in Github, might be more readable for user.
I agree with @Yorik's triage approach, I will join my efforts.
