Genuinely curious why you're using the words "bug report" and "developers" here - would this actually be an implementation-specific software issue? All this squishiness sounds like a manual process simply didn't get followed correctly or something.
- tapland 4y agoWe had to manually investigate and handle individual screwed up number portings _all the time_. And we did so every single time we (the developers/maintainers) got a report about something having gone wrong. The sending carrier has that number port logged, and the receiving carrier will if they received the request.
- exikyut 4y agoOoooh, I see. TIL, thanks! So, what kinds of things would actually go wrong? "Bits of proprietary software yelling at each other in non-standard-ese"? Crazy scripting fixing frequent human mistakes? Or...? I'm very fascinated with this sort of thing given it's treated like such an impermeable brick wall.
