I would love to participate in boundary checking and defect confirmation
efforts, supporting the AOO 4.1.2 release candidate! What steps do I need
to take to participate in these efforts?
Hello Frank, it is very simple for you an and anyone else to join.
First, take a look at
http://openoffice.apache.org/orientation/intro-qa.html just to have a
generic introduction.
Then, register for a Bugzilla account as instructed in that page.
And then you can:
1) Download and use the development version 4.1.2-RC2, available from
https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/openoffice/ ; currently, the
English version for Windows is at
https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/openoffice/4.1.2-rc2-r1707648/binaries/en-US/Apache_OpenOffice_4.1.2_Win_x86_install_en-US.exe
2) Use the following link to find a list of issues to be checked:
https://bz.apache.org/ooo/buglist.cgi?bug_status=CONFIRMED&bug_status=ACCEPTED&bug_status=REOPENED&bug_status=RESOLVED&bug_status=VERIFIED&bug_status=CLOSED&f1=flagtypes.name&list_id=170870&o1=substring&query_format=advanced&resolution=---&resolution=FIXED&v1=4.1.2_release_blocker%2B
The aim of QA is to bring issues from RESOLVED state to VERIFIED. To do
that, you can just put a comment in each issue that is not already
VERIFIED or CLOSED and state if it works for you or not.
You can get permission to flag issues as CLOSED or VERIFIED yourself by
asking on this list.
Regards,
Andrea.
