Huge applause 
…
A few of us in the SmartThings Developer Slack channel discussed this at length last week, agreeing that the current main Status page would be too cluttered if it was used for ongoing issues, bugs, or partial feature outages.
Since SmartThings didn’t offer an alternative, we suggested (and concluded) it seemed entirely practical for a Moderated Category to be added to this Community Forum where ST Engineers (and/or the Developer /Community Advocates) could create and update a Topic for each issue. The Topics could be read-only / no discussion, but we could subscribe to updates.
-
The suggestion was summarily dismissed by the attending SmartThings employee… “we’re working on something” (or short similar phrase).
-
We admitted the suggestion wasn’t perfect, but seemed to have more benefits than drawbacks as an interim solution… But no response.
