I want to be a member of the ubuntu-bugcontrol team. I don't intend to do any general work triaging bugs in Ubuntu. But, for the packages that I maintain in Debian, I will work on Ubuntu bugs that also affect Debian. and I know that MOTUs get access to bugs also, but I do not intend to become a MOTU or do any developement/packaging work directly in Ubuntu either.
So, wrt the Application: 1. Do you promise to be polite to bug reporters even if they are rude to you or Ubuntu? Have you signed the Ubuntu Code of Conduct? yes, and yes. 2. Have you read Bugs/HowToTriage, Bugs/Assignment, Bugs/Status and Bugs/Importance? Do you have any questions about that documentation? read the last 3, read the relavant (the parts that have to with the types of bugs I will be "controlling") sections of the first one, while skimming the rest. No questions, it's all fairly straightforward. 3. What sensitive data should you look for in a private Apport crash report bug before making it public? See Bugs/HowToTriage for more information. personally, I wouldn't go as far as to make a stack trace public that contains the persons hostname (without asking first). that's probably a little more strict than Ubuntu in general, though. obviously no passwords, email addresses, etc. 4. Is there a particular package or group of packages that you are interested in helping out with? yes, onle the ones that I maintain/am working on maintaining in Debian. Currently, that is: gstm, libnagios-object-perl, xli, xalan, and swatch. 5. Please list of five or more bugs which you have triaged. These bugs should demonstrate your understanding of the triage process and how to properly handle bugs. If there is a bug in your list that does not have an importance indicate what importance you would give it after becoming a member of Ubuntu Bug Control. Please use urls in your list of bugs. These are the bugs (in gstm) that I've looked at tonight: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gstm/+bug/105078 https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gstm/+bug/105082 https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gstm/+bug/276517 https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gstm/+bug/276525 https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gstm/+bug/276529 https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gstm/+bug/276530 https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gstm/+bug/276534 https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gstm/+bug/293240 Here are the suggested importances, which I just asked on irc: 01:15 < Ryan52> can somebody set some bug importances for me? here's my list (bugnumber => suggested_importance_level): 105078 => low, 105082 => low, 276517 => low, 276525 => low, 276529 => medium, 276530 => low, 293240 => medium and a status change: 01:28 < Ryan52> and, can somebody change the status on 276534 to wont fix instead of invalid. I knew there was a won't fix, but not seeing it in the list made me think I was wrong...and now I figured out that there is a status called wont't fix, but I just don't have permission to use it. -_- Here's a few Debian bug examples, too, just because they are more interesting than the launchpad ones, and demostrate that I can actually ask bug reporters for more information rather than just say "ya, ok, I'll fix this" :) http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=137574 http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=243282 http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=471121 Thanks, Ryan (ryan52 on launchpad) -- _________________________ Ryan Niebur [EMAIL PROTECTED]
