[Libreoffice-qa] [ANNOUNCE] Branch libreoffice-4-3-2 and Tag libreoffice-4.3.2.1 created
Hi all, The tag libreoffice-4.3.2.1 (AKA 4.3.2 RC1) and the corresponding branch libreoffice-4-3-2 have been created. The branch will be used for fine tuning of the 4.3.2 release. (there is one additional RC planned) The following rules apply: + preferably just translation or blocker fixes + only cherry-picking from libreoffice-4-3 branch + 2 additional reviews needed; 2nd reviewer pushes + no regular merges back to anything The 'libreoffice-4-3' branch is still active and will be used for the 4.3.3 bugfix release. Please read more at http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/ReleasePlan/4.3#4.3.2_release http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Development/Branches http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Release_Criteria Now, if you want to switch your clone to the branch, please do: ./g pull -r ./g checkout -b libreoffice-4-3-2 origin/libreoffice-4-3-2 To checkout the tag, use ./g fetch --tags ./g checkout -b tag-libreoffice-4.3.2.1 libreoffice-4.3.2.1 Hopefully it will work for you :-) Most probably, you will also want to do (if you haven't done it yet): git config --global push.default tracking When you do git push with this, git will push only the branch you are on; e.g. libreoffice-4-3-2 when you have switched to it. This will save you some git shouting at you. Linux distro packages might find source tarballs at http://dev-builds.libreoffice.org/pre-releases/src/ They will soon be available from the official page together with the builds.

Re: [Libreoffice-qa] BSA 2.0 - First Draft of Concept Questions

When Calligra Words crashed on me, their step by step bug report was fun to go through. About your doc, here are some thoughts. 1) I'm assuming that many users coming to the BSA are coming through the Help Send Feedback menu item and the libreoffice version number will be provided through this link, so the first question should be for the user to enter in the libreoffice version they are using and that the list be automatically set to the version present in the link. After the user selects his version, or simply clicks ok as his version is already selected, then either it takes him to the 'please upgrade your version' notice or step 2. Not sure I'm following this. About suggestion 1, when a user goes to Help Send Feedback, its a link that looks like this http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/feedback/?LOversion=4.4.0.0.alpha0LOlocale=en-USLOmodule=StartModule and in the LOversion part of the url, that is the libreoffice version number, so that should be used to automatically set it in the drop down. Forgot to mention that in the 'Reproducible Steps:' step, the module selection should be there as well, and the link mentioned above will also help in its auto selection. 2) I think we should ask them to download the latest stable/still version if they are running an EOL version or if they are on an older version of the current stable/still. I strongly disagree - if it's fixed in Fresh - that is sufficient 95% of the time (ie. we're not going to go dig through to find a backport if stable isn't fixed). The idea here is to lessen the load on QA, not to increase, and this would increase it. Else they download stable, confirm that their minor bug is still in it, report, we find that it's fixed in Fresh, and just set to WFM. This is not the ideal situation. They can always download stable - we'll just direct them to the Fresh page, if they go to the Stable branch, fine. 3) Step 2 should be asking the user for his operating system, with that being automatically selected by means of javascript through the user's browser agent (florian already has that code). Takes more work to implement. Florian's thing is a concept, not currently workable without additional steps by user. The main point here is that step 2 should be the user choosing his operating system and the javascript can assist with that selection. If the javascript is never implemented, that is also not a problem for this to be step 2. This should be very easy to implement and Liongold or I can assist with it with Florian's code. 3) Step 3 should be asking them if this is a bug report or an enhancement request and this step should be skipped if the user clicks the two different links on http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/feedback/ , as presently they link to the same page. Again this takes more work and coding WITHIN LibreOffice but I'm not opposed to the idea. I'm assuming cloph or Liongold can easily make this minor change and worst case, i'll can do it if i get the keys. :D 4) Step 4 is only for users who are submitting a bug report and that asks them if this bug had happened in a previous version and shows the version list with the first entry being something like i'm not sure. Yup agreed. 5) I think it would be great to have bug priority set by simple yes/no questions, but think that is the job of the QA team to set that feature, and a simple yes/no question of whether it hangs/crashes is sufficient for BSA bug reporters. This would just set a quasi setting that could always be changed, I disagree that we can't ask users to help us. Else - the reality is we don't have the time to even triage bugs let alone deal with prioritizing them. A rough idea through 4 questions seems fine and if users are unhappy answering 4 simple questions, I have little patience for taking my time to triage their bugs.
