Scheduling a Bug Day

Hello Tomboy team!

I'd like to follow up from our meeting a week and a half ago and schedule a day to go through Tomboy's Bugzilla.  The goal would be to review patches in Tomboy's bugzilla, confirm bugs, and work on bug fixes.

How does Wednesday, May 6th or Thursday, May 7th work for everyone?

Take a look at your calendars, and drop a note to the list.

Thanks!

Paul

Hey,

For me is better after 7th but I can prepare some patches to be
committed any day ;-)

We can push it out a week later as well, if people would like more time to prepare.

This is doable for me, but I wonder if we would get a better turn-out
by having the bug day on a weekend?  Any thoughts?  When do people
normally do these?  :-)

I think we should plan how we will tackle this bugday before it begins.

Perhaps set priorities like

1. Test/apply bugs scheduled to 0.15.
2. Triage bugs scheduled to 0.15.
3. Triage the remaining UNCONFIRMED bugs and schedule them to Future or 0.15.

A wiki page with planning notes and bugzilla queries would help this
along.  Ooops.  Did I just volunteer myself ???

I'm usually available on Wed or Thurs evenings MST.  Weekends are more
difficult.

Yes, definitely.  I'm not comfortable scheduling a bug day without a
solid plan first.

That is a great idea.  Some things we could do:

* Test outstanding patches, leave comments on those that no longer
apply, follow-up on those that do
* Get rid of as many UNCONFIRMED bugs as possible
* Schedule them, as Mike suggests
* Consider going as far as creating milestones for each upcoming
0.15.x release, and scheduling bugs for each milestone?
* Mark gnome-love (if you have a clue about how hard it would be to
work on a given bug)
* And, of course, looking at old bugs with no recent updates to see if
they're still valid

Would love to just point people at a wiki page with simple
instructions, and have everything go smoothly.

Once we know what we're doing, let's schedule a day.  :-)  And yes,
let's do it soon!

Sandy
