Since the start of this year I've been tracking the number of open code bugs from the Jira filter 'Derby open code bugs'.

Interesting idea would be to set a target for the next release (May?), something like 180, say fixing around two/three per active developer?

+1, sounds like a good goal.

I noticed that DERBY-2034 incorporates several Jira issues for which the symptom is wrong results (in some way or another). If I had to pick, I'd say this is a good list to start with:

DERBY-2370  EXISTS may return the wrong value for...    Major   Open
DERBY-2256 Wrong Results: Use of decimal values ...     Major   Open
DERBY-1949 locate function returns invalid value...     Major   Open

DERBY-2017 Client driver can insert and commit p...     Major   Open
DERBY-1816 Client's ResultSet.getTime() on a SQL...     Minor   Open

Two others that perhaps fall into this category (based on their summaries; I haven't investigated at all) are DERBY-2105 and DERBY-2073.

From this list I'm actively working on DERBY-2256 and plan to hit DERBY-1852, as well. If no one else jumps--and if time permits--I may also look into DERBY-2370. But that still leaves quite a few--if any developers out there are looking for bugs to pick up, I encourage them to consider any of the ones linked to DERBY-2034...

Army
