Bear in mind, though, that "unreviewed" does not actually mean "no-one's ever looked at this". For example: * Tickets whose problems could not be reproduced by a triager typically remain "unreviewed" until further information comes from the reporter (or until they've sat for a while with no further input, at which point they typically get closed out when someone does a sweep through the ticket system). * Tickets which may be duplicates but have not yet been confirmed as duplicates typically remain at "unreviewed" until it can be determined whether they should close as dupes. Also, the oldest unreviewed ticket in Trac is about five months old, and the vast majority are much more recent; large changes like qsrf inevitably involve large numbers of new tickets (both purported bugs as well as feature requests based on new functionality), and Django's user base has been expanding dramatically. This means the rate of new tickets goes through sudden spikes after which it takes some time to catch up, which is where we are right now. If you'd like to help with triaging and you feel you're familiar enough both with Django and with the existing base of tickets (one of the toughest things, in my experience, is keeping track of a small number of major issues which end up spawning large numbers of duplicates or related tickets), feel free to lend a hand, but keep in mind that not everything marked "unreviewed" has gone entirely without oversight ;) -- "Bureaucrat Conrad, you are technically correct -- the best kind of correct." --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django developers" group.
