So to fix this I porpose that we setup a "what needs to be done list" that is sent out every second week or so, any thoughts on that?
It would be *so* nice to have something like that or, if it already exists, a bugzilla URL that will accomplish the same thing. If the latter, I'd happy write up a bash/wget script that people can use in their own cron jobs.
There is a web link to the bugzilla stuff, but it isn't as useful as a clear, detailed email would be since the subject line is often inaccurate, etc.
Part of the problem -- and this is merely a description, not a gripe, and it's certainly not directed at Jesse, who's put in way more work than anyone should expect -- is that it's difficult to find the time to figure out what needs doing. I'd happily Q/A more packages, but doing so requires (afaict) lots of bugzilla spelunking, and I'm still never sure if I've got it all.
Sometimes it does indeed. Some of the bugzilla subjects only mention e.g. RH 7.3, but then the entry also addresses RH 8.0, but how to know that without reading each entry in full? That makes things difficult...
I realize that it requires lots of labor hours to make nifty interfaces and current web pages -- but that's my view from the cheap seats.
Yes, but it does pay off in increased community participation.
