I hope you'll enjoy +working with both :-) + +In addition to the pointers you were already given by Marja and others, +I'd like to chip in with "bugs handling" the Remmy way. + +Depending on my time available, energy, and other interests in life I +usually use one of the following two modes: + +1) Read everything that comes in on the bugzilla mail list and pick up +that which I feel I can triage properly or help triage. I usually do this +during holidays, or when sick at home for a few days... Unfortunately, the +volume of bugzilla mails coming in is so great that once you slip a few +days it is almost impossible to get catched up. My trick for getting +catched up is "mark all as read" and start afresh. Hopefully others on the +team will have had time to look into these reports, and if not, they will +surface when executing mode 2. + +For any bug reports that I have an active interest in myself, I add myself +to the Cc list. That way I will get any updates on them, even when I am +getting backlogged on reading the bugzilla mails themselves. The latter go +to a seperate folder automatically, the bugs where I am Cc'ed on go to my +regular inbox. + +2) I like (love) saved searches in bugzilla. I find it very handy to ask +bugzilla: "Please show me all the new bugs of the past 2 days", "Show me +all open bugs having no action for the last xx days", "Show all bugs +assigned to bugsquad", etc. They enable me to quickly take actions on bugs +that need action and in which I have an interest. You can do one or two +whenever you have a few free moments to spare. + +What I think is important to keep in mind is that unfortunately there is +more work to be done on triaging than any of us currently have time +available. As such, any help is appreciated and you don't have to feel +guilty about "not doing enough". All little bits help. + +On the "triaged" keyword, I normally do not bother. Once a bug has been +assigned to the proper maintainer, I feel that's usually where my +involvement ends or should end. Only for cases where we can't assign the +bug to a maintainer, but there is little more we can do at this point (for +example, it's a bug in the upstream code of the program itself, and not a +bug in the Mageia packaging of that program) do I think that adding that +keyword is of some added value. + +Thanks for joining, and hope to talk to you online some time :-) + +Kind regards, + +Remmy + +-------------- next part -------------- +A non-text attachment was scrubbed... +Name: not available +Type: application/pgp-signature +Size: 836 bytes +Desc: not available +URL: </pipermail/mageia-bugsquad/attachments/20121223/349ee2a5/attachment.asc> +</PRE> + +<!--endarticle--> + <HR> + <P><UL> + <!--threads--> + <LI>Previous message: <A HREF="000193.html">[Mageia-bugsquad] Still need some help +</A></li> + <LI>Next message: <A HREF="000194.html">[Mageia-bugsquad] een paar vraagjes Mageai +</A></li> + <LI> <B>Messages sorted by:</B> + <a href="date.html#195">[ date ]</a> + <a href="thread.html#195">[ thread ]</a> + <a href="subject.html#195">[ subject ]</a> + <a href="author.html#195">[ author ]</a> + </LI> + </UL> + +<hr> +<a href="https://www.mageia.org/mailman/listinfo/mageia-bugsquad">More information about the Mageia-bugsquad +mailing list</a><br> +</body></html> |
