While we're at this topic; I could use a duplicate finder for bug wrangling to spare other devs from coming across the same bug again, also a build log parser that only show the relevant bits that matter so I don't have to waste time grepping for keywords that appear in file names as well, not to forget about compressed build logs, and for assigning bugs an integrated herds.xml lookup would be pretty useful... Using these tools I could process bugs in half the time; and those are mostly just tools on the bug wrangling side, the dev and ebuild side could also use some more tools. If nobody wrote tools, we wouldn't have Bugzilla, Mailing List Daemons and Portage; back in the old days... Also, your response is quite funny if you consider his sole two bugs are one low priority bug that's 3 years old and has been reassigned a few times because it's not worth fixing (aka not an actual problem), the other one is actually for a tool called recruiting.gentoo.org. I'd rather see this dev continue developing than wasting time on bugs, this reminds me that I should do some short term development myself instead of wasting a lot of time long term; even if I don't end up benefiting of the cost, any person that follows my footsteps will.

Is there a rule in Gentoo that forbids a dev to fix a bug assigned to someone else? That would make absolutely no sense to me. No wonder then, that there are several bugs with no activity for months after I have committed fixed ebuilds to my overlay and mentioned that in a comment. Yes, one shall not commit on packages other developers maintain without the permission to do such thing. This is basically stupid. Anyway, commit is one thing, but fixing bugs can be done while still respecting that rule. I would however make this simple suggestion: On bugdays every bugfix [optionally for bugs inactive for x days] is fair game for every developer to commit. Those who feel threatened by other people touching their bits might pay more attention to bugs then. It would also promote more acceptance of other fixing their stuff. I know that several (many?) developers give blanket permission, and I think that's good, but I think it's really broken that they have to at all. Back to bugday.. But let's assume the horribly attaching a patch approach (save two files, compare them, bla...)... Yes, web apps are supremely inefficient shitty tools. I'm very happy to be able to simply refer to my overlay when I have fixed something. I do try to also attach fixed files, but I don't always manage. Can you write me a tool that shows these kinds of bugs, easily submit patches to them and follow up on whether the developer commits them or retires at one or another point? I don't do any of this for my bugs. Bugzilla implicitly does much of that for you already, if you tell it to send you email for all changes on bugs you have the raw data in email form, which may be easier to work with sans SQL access to the bugzilla database. That works really well for me to follow any bugs that I am interested in, and it's pretty easy to search in email and see what has happened when, and how much is still open (different folders). Submitting patches, no I think that's too broken on the web, and that something more powerful like an overlay could be used instead - at the very least for fixes from developers. I could state that working on bugs assigned to someone else is orthogonal to fixing your own bugs.

He has become a developer so why would he not be able to take neccessary action to close bugs, even if they haven't been assigned to him? Because it isn't as simple as you make it seem like, as stated above. For several bugs that I have fixed, it is precisely that simple. Fixes have been ready for months and just need to be committed. I'd dare to call it outright trivial. They still aren't committed. Finding them easily? Well maybe a search query that orders by last activity weighted by severity, number of attachments and fulltext search for fixed would be a start? I guess that's easy to do even in bugzilla's web interface? - But Peter, you say, don't you see - that would lead to more fixed bugs! Orly? How is that bad? Y u no serious? U mad? Not mat, I am being serious - I guess that the uncommitted fixes mean lack of attention to bugs, which I completely understand. I further guess that the bugday is an initiative to attend to bugs. So any developer who wants to help could close bugs by comitting fixes from others, fixes that are already in bugzilla. I guess the few bugs that I have done this for are not unique in Gentoo's bugzilla, likely there are lots of other bugs just like mine, where users have contributed fixes for stuff that they have run into and it still hasn't gotten committed, nor reviewed. At least one of my bugs is even UNCONFIRMED. It's almost mocking the entire bugzilla. :) (I'm obviously assuming that all developers (but not infra) are equally competent, since that's the model taught by recruitment.) Competence is irrelevant to this discussion, competency is to be assumed. I agree that it is to be assumed, but I think it is relevant because I believe that fear of incompetence is the reason why developers feel threatened by commits from others, so it supports the idea that at the very least on bugday it would be fine for everyone to commit everything. (Again, I am assuming that all fixes are correct.) Though, since you want to discuss this; note that with the right tools incompetent developers can become more competent, instead of having no clue where to start they can efficiently start on something right away and finish it in a timely matter.

The upcoming bugday event is this Saturday and I hope this event will continue in the next months. I have created a wiki page for the event[1] and I added some guidelines. I have also created a related blog post about the event[2]. I have listed some maintainer-wanted and maintainer-need bugs and Bugzilla admins also re-enabled the bugday flag. I would like to ask the Gentoo project teams to start using this flag to their bugs that think that are good to start and enable the flag at them. It would be great to a have a really big list with 'good to start' bugs. It's the first time after a long time that this event will take place, so I am looking forward to your participation both users and developers and your feedback.

What about the old bugday webpage[1]? It seems a bit broken at the moment, but may be useful to get running again. Is the code available somewhere? Who has access to the login in the footer? antarus@flycatcher /var/svnroot/bugday $ grep svnbugday /etc/group svnbugday:x:4005:gurligebis It is there, but only gurligebis has r/w. We should migrate it to git.o.g.o if possible (all the secrets should be in a separate infra-owned repo, basically.) I have no idea who has access to login.
