Hi, everybody. It's that time, again. The week went something a little like this:
0. Bugs: Bug page: http://bugs.gnewsense.org/ Bug stats: http://wiki.gnewsense.org/Main/HowToHelp 35 bugs. +1 change from last week We need to try to solve some of these, and not just hope that somebody else will! 1. Package Freedom stats: PFV page: http://wiki.gnewsense.org/Main/PackagesInMain PFV stats: http://wiki.gnewsense.org/Main/HowToHelp We have 73 100% free package sections, which is an increase of 2 sections. Bit of a slow week. You've probably noticed the output from Markus' script. This script runs a check on the various package sections and the activity taking place. All of the information is drawn from information that you have put into the summary tables. If the script says that you haven't touched a section for 70 days, and you were working on it yesterday, then you probably didn't update your progress. Much STALLED stuff here, can people please try to help these sections out. Some depend on freedom issues, that can be easily resolved, probably by mailing the package maintainer. PLEASE, PLEASE keep working on the PFV stuff, as we are really achieving a lot. It would be a mistake to give-up, now. With regard to personal recognition, I had a quick look, and it looks like Broam, Edi and Elopio are being really modest, or maybe I just mis-counted. Check your numbers, guys. 2. Report on Suspected non-free table: http://wiki.gnewsense.org/Main/SuspectedNonFree The Suspected non-free table doesn't seem to be getting as much use as it should be. Please note that any packages that you are not sure about, should be recorded here, and a bug raised. If the bug has been raised already, add your new findings to the bug, and x-refer your new findings on the Suspected non-free table. IF IT'S NOT DOCUMENTED, IT DOESN'T GET RESOLVED! :-) I sent out an email reminder regarding the Suspected non-free table. This doesn't seem to be being used correctly. If you have an item in here, PLEASE confirm that you've reported it as a bug. This hasn't happened on all the entries. PLEASE CHECK :-). For the columns that don't have dates of the last update, I have recorded _No date-STALLED_. When this area of the wiki gets scripted, it will automatically highlight the entries that don't seem to be moving on, and get reported weekly. 3. As I say, it's been a slow week. Don't be disheartened. We did really well the week before, so let's try to do the same, next week. Thanks as always :-) Cheers, Chris. -- Reasons why you may want to try GNU/Linux: http://www.getgnulinux.org/ A great GNU/Linux distro: http://wiki.gnewsense.org/ _______________________________________________ gNewSense-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnewsense-users
