There was one autoclosing nightmare recently and I thought no one dare to
propose another one any time soon...
Hi,
I agree! There is no benefit from putting bugs from 1 drawer to an other
one without any research, but all these mass changes cause lots of
emails, break queries, ... . I dislike that empty activity.
These old unconfirmed bugs cause no problems at all, and some of those
in Florian's queries have been reopened after the last mass close
because of good reasons (Enhancement request, ...) I have a feed showing
Bugs what have been reopened from the last mass close, currently I count
150 (from 900 or so closed ones). And a sample I did before the mass
close showed that 1/3 of those bugs were real bugs. So recommend to
review bugs, not to carry them around.
The problem is that most of bugs are
not checked by anyone. As my experience shows - one manual ping can resolve
most issues or transfer the bug to developers. We need more people to read
bugs and process them, not more ideas how to autoclose them.
So it is. If we would have 10 people who do an extra review per day for
the Bugs from Florians queries, we would be through before next spring.
We urgently need more reviewers, and the most promising way is to ask
reporters who look qualified to help to review an other bug. Only 5 new
power-reviewers /of 10 who have been asked) would help a lot. We should
do a systematic approach to that (may be with a list who asked whom for
additional reports to avoid double work and annoyance for the "candidates".
Best regards
Rainer
