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-1852 Wrong results: duplicate rows returne... Major Open
DERBY-889 with client getTimestamp on a TIME co... Major Open
DERBY-1030 In some situations a RETURNS NULL ON ... 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...
