Hello To coincide with the move from the old lighthouse to the new ( http://datamapper.lighthouseapp.com ), we're clearing out all the old tickets. This doesn't necessarily mean fixing them right away though that is, of course, the ultimate goal. The goal for the moment is simply to get rid of all the unconfirmed tickets, classifying them as:
Resolved The problem reported in the ticket is no more Confirmed This is a real problem, and a fix is needed Hold This might be a real problem, but we need a little more information. This will allow people who do have the time to fix bugs to quickly find what the problems are and deal with them. On Sunday, there were getting on for 200 unconfirmed tickets. There are now around 80, but some help with the confirmation process would definitely be appreciated. To confirm a ticket doesn't take much. If the problem is resolved, a simple note of "Works for me using 0.9.7|edge" is all that is needed. If it is still a problem, then a so called 'one file example', which is a minimal example using an sqlite3 memory adapter and just enough code to duplicate the problem would be a great thing to attach to the ticket. (One file example are great to include with new tickets too, as they allow a developer to quickly identify the problem) On a similar note, we'd also like people to volunteer to adopt a dm-more gem (preferably not just for Christmas ^_~), generally taking responsibility for fixing bugs which emerge in the library, and being knowledgeable enough about the gem in question to know if something is a bug. Finally, if you have recently (or not so recently) submitted a ticket, it would be great if you could look up the lighthouse and especially check it isn't on hold, or if it is, supply some more details. If you have more questions, or would like to volunteer, please reply to this email, or find me in #datamapper on freenode. (Or just jump right in and start commenting on tickets and providing examples!) Regards Jon (namelessjon) PS To easily generate one file example, I have a gem (which will soon be extended to more DM related files - though not for any particular web framework) available from: https://github.com/namelessjon/dm-gen/tree --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "DataMapper" group.
