Hey all, During today's IRC meeting, the topic of bugs + bug closure came up. Specifically, the question of whether we should have any set procedure for handling bugs and closing them.
Right now, when I see a bug that I can fix, I assign it to myself and then update the bug once I've submitted a patch/fix and then Resolve the issue - but I do not close out the bug. Instead, I leave it to the submitter to verify that the bug is fixed and let them close the bug. Other folks do it differently. The question I have is whether we want to have a standard procedure for handling bugs? Should the person submitting a patch also be the person to close a bug? Should we have some form of triage for bugs? We currently have 126 open bugs (out of 411 opened so far) and 71 of those are unassigned. How do we ensure someone is looking at those? Thoughts?
