Hi all, Introducing the bug squad: Currently there is not much to introduce except for this idea in my head. Last friday I started a thread about collecting and fixing pet peeve bugs, the idea behind this thread was to build a collection of bugs which are high on the annoyance ladder and are fixable by mere mortals. Building such a collection is just the start however, the next step is to build a team of volunteers to tackle these bugs: the bug squad. I myself will be part of the team, and I'm looking for partners in crime to squash all those nasty bugs. So what is expected of a bug squad member? Well the nescesarry skills to hunt down and fix bugs of course and some time to spare and invest, thats about all. And the rewards, well beside enormous fame the biggest reward will be a better distro and a better Linux landscape in general with less bugs and thus more fun. So come on and sign up today! --- So what will the bug squad do once formed? *The* purpose is to fix bugs. That is a but of a wide scope however, so the main purpose is to fix those bugs which affect a large audience and which are fixable with the skills and capabilities available in the bug squad. Also this will be strictly about bugs, not about behavioral changes (like the gnome file selector discussions), we might do simple RFE's if and only if upstream agrees its an enhancement. We will also need to devise some way for people to bring bugs which match our MO to our attention and some coordination to avoid debugging the same bug with 3 people at the same time, but that will all come, once we have our most important asset: People. So come on and sign up today! Regards, Hans p.s. Here is a list of bugs collected from the pet peeve bug discussion to get us started, filtered somewhat to weed out any behavioral change requests: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=188079 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=106552 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=131428 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=187268 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=168660 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=177823 -- fedora-extras-list mailing list fedora-extras-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-extras-list
