Good idea, done. Updated version attached as Stormy wrote today that the deadline is Friday 16th (today in my timezone). andre -- mailto:[email protected] | failed http://www.iomc.de/ | http://blogs.gnome.org/aklapper
In August GNOME Bugzilla was updated to version 3.4 by Max-Kanat Alexander with huge help of Olav Vitters and Owen Taylor. The previous version was several years old and did not receive any upstream security fixes anymore. It also had several GNOME-only enhancements that partially have been ported to 3.4 though some regressions remained. The server hardware was also improved so timeout issues when running complex queries do not happen anymore. >From July to September, 9227 reports (bugs + feature requests) were opened and >8751 were closed. Top bug closers were Akhil Laddha (484 reports), Fabio Durán Verdugo (455), Andre Klapper (269), Bastien Nocera (261) and Matthew Barnes (251). Top bug reporters were Pedro Villavicencio (136 reports), Owen Taylor (116), Bastien Nocera (99), Colin Walters (92) and Matthias Clasen (87). The GNOME Bugsquad has started to have monthly meetings to discuss policies and issues. The new policy to handle old forgotten reports is in place and has been revised after feedback from developers. UNCONFIRMED bug reports (but not enhancement requests) with one year without any activity will be set to NEEDINFO state and reporters will be asked to update the report’s status by testing again on a recent GNOME version. When reports are closed as "FIXED" reporters will now kindly be asked to verify the fix once it has landed in their distribution and if they have some time. As there are many modules in GNOME Bugzilla that have not seen any code changes for years (except for translation updates) the Bugsquad has started trying to identify those obsolete/unmaintained modules and contact the maintainers. Without a response the remaining reports will probably be closed as WONTFIX while explaining to the reporter that the module is not maintained anymore and will not receive any updates. In order to improve workflow the Bugsquad now also has its own module in GNOME Bugzilla to keep track of assigned tasks.
