+<PRE>(Thanks Manuel, for improving what I wrote and thanks Dan for asking for examples.
+
+I'll try to expand and improve this document - maybe even with screenshots - for use in the new wiki.)
+
+Any suggestions (from anybody!) are welcome.
+
+But please don't look at the current triage guide now.
+I don't want you to concentrate on that guide, but I would like you to concentrate on what you know or learned by experience.
+Later on the triage guide can be compared with this document and they can be fused into a guide that contains the best of both :-)

+</I>
+*EASY THINGS TO BEGIN WITH:
+
+*PACKAGE REQUESTS:
+
+&gt;&gt;<i> Search bugzilla for package requests that haven't been assigned yet
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> <A HREF="https://bugs.mageia.org/buglist.cgi?query_format=advanced&amp;bug_status=NEW&amp;bug_status=REOPENED&amp;component=New%20RPM%20package%20request">https://bugs.mageia.org/buglist.cgi?query_format=advanced&amp;bug_status=NEW&amp;bug_status=REOPENED&amp;component=New%20RPM%20package%20request</A>
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> Some requesters forget to give a link to where the software can be
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> found.
+</I>
+
+&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> If they haven't given a link at all, you can ask them to give the
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> upstream link to the package. If they say: it is a Mandriva package,
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> you can say: not all our packagers are familiar with Mandriva, so
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> please give an upstream link.
+</I>
+&gt;&gt;<i> Or they put the link in the description field, which is good,
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> but the_link should also go in the URL field_. Like
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> <A HREF="https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1067">https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1067</A> You can copy the link to
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> the url field, if you want to
+</I>&gt;<i> You can also_complete the field RPM package_, and make an precise summary
+</I>&gt;<i> if that is not enough (like removing: &quot;I'd like to see this package in
+</I>&gt;<i> mageia&quot;
+</I>and replace it
+
+&gt;<i> _with &quot;$name-of-the-package, $a very short description&quot;_
+</I>
+BUGS:
+
+Not all steps ar easy, you can start doing what is easy for you and leave the rest to others.
+No bugs should be assigned to a maintainer before all necessary steps are taken (unless, of course, the maintainer chooses to grab the bug)
+
+
+Step 1
+
+
+
+&gt;&gt;<i> Look at the
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> new bugs that are reported and use bugzilla to find out whether one is
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> a_duplicate_ of an existing bug. If you are not used to searching
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> bugzilla: play around with it first. And don't forget to try the
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> advanced options <A HREF="https://bugs.mageia.org/query.cgi">https://bugs.mageia.org/query.cgi</A> (choose right tab:
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> advanced search)
+</I>Step 2a
+
+Dit the reporter give the needed basic information about the Mageia release he uses and what steps to take to reproduce the bug?
+
+ADD:(examples of reports with and without needed info)
+
+
+step 2b (often not so easy, if you don't know how to do it: leave it to others and watch what they do)
+
+Check wether the reporter gave needed backtraces, if he didn't: ask for them and tell him how to get them if he doesn't know
+
+ADD: (examples)
+
+
+Step 3
+
+
+&gt;&gt;<i> If someone has the same version of Mandriva as you and reports a bug
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> in a program you are familiar with, you can try to_reproduce_ the bug.
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
+</I>But often other Mageia users report that they have the same bug, so then they reproduced it.
+
+If it can't be reproduced, than it isn't a bug and the bug should be closed
+(but please tell the user he can find help for his problem on <A HREF="https://forums.mageia.org/en/">https://forums.mageia.org/en/</A>)
+
+Step 4
+
+
+&gt;<i> You can also_add a maintainer_ like what I do here:
+</I>&gt;<i> <A HREF="https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2856">https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2856</A>
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> <A HREF="https://bugs.mageia.org/show_activity.cgi?id=2856">https://bugs.mageia.org/show_activity.cgi?id=2856</A>
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> check the src.rpm:
+</I>&gt;<i> :src claws-mail with sophie (on irc or sophie.zarb.org)
+</I>&gt;<i> or urpmq --sourcerpm claws-mail
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> then search the maintainer:
+</I>&gt;<i> :maint claws-mail
+</I>&gt;<i> or search on the txt list: <A HREF="http://pkgsubmit.mageia.org/data/maintdb.txt">http://pkgsubmit.mageia.org/data/maintdb.txt</A>
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> then search the email of the maintainer: julien on the page
+</I>&gt;<i> <A HREF="http://www.mageia.org/wiki/doku.php?id=packaging#list_of_registered_people">http://www.mageia.org/wiki/doku.php?id=packaging#list_of_registered_people</A>
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> or just type the id, sometime it's work (like for misc, tmb,...),
+</I>&gt;<i> sometimes not (like here, there is two id) :)
+</I>OLD BUGS:
+
+&gt;<i> We must check that for all 'old' bug.
+</I>&gt;<i> Here is a saved-search for all bug assigned to bugsquad:
+</I>&gt;<i> <A HREF="https://bugs.mageia.org/buglist.cgi?cmdtype=dorem&amp;remaction=run&amp;namedcmd=Bugs%20not%20triaged%20%28excl%20new%20RPM%20requests%29&amp;sharer_id=35">https://bugs.mageia.org/buglist.cgi?cmdtype=dorem&amp;remaction=run&amp;namedcmd=Bugs%20not%20triaged%20%28excl%20new%20RPM%20requests%29&amp;sharer_id=35</A>
