juju-qa-bot has will be doing mass/automated bug changes for us now. You can filter those bug emails out since they will be usually be a case of bugs changing to Fix Committed or Fix Released. I am also tasking to bot to create the pool of Medium bugs tat we will actively retriage.

Let's try without a horizon milestone. my concern was a clear distinction between targeted and untargeted bugs. Lp doesn't make this distinction; a listing of High bugs will include bugs with and without milestones. It is impossible to query for no milestone. The listing will always include Fix Committed. So we will see the next-stable burndown list intermingled in the high. This is the smallest URL I could construct to show a listing of High bugs, the untargeted bugs are listed first. There are 165 bugs at this moment, 87 of which are are High without a milestone. https://bugs.launchpad.net/juju-core/+bugs?field.importance=High&field.status=Triaged&field.status=In%20Progress&orderby=-milestone_name > That would give us > 1) A new bug comes in, I review it and mark it as High > 2) That flags it for review.

We can demote 12 bugs or wait a week for them to burn down (ban new high bugs) We current'y have all the High bugs targeted to the next-stable milestone. Team Leads need to review the list and untarget the unrequired bugs. This will also require us to demote some bugs to Medium. I have some concern about current developer behaviour with bugs that will lead to a lot of churn of High bugs without milestones. New habits are needed. Developers often report a bug and start working on it, regardless of its importance. I am sure the developer is operating under the opportunity situation where this is the moment to fix a bug. Since there will always be 75 high bugs, when developers report the bug as high, then need to demote a bug to Medium. That is both a distraction for developers and bug subscribers. Developers could report the bug as Medium, work on it because it is an opportunity. We can demote the unfinished bug to low during retriage if we don't see any progress with the bug. -- Curtis Hovey Canonical Cloud Development and Operations http://launchpad.net/~sinzui -- Juju-dev mailing list [email protected] Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/juju-dev
