Could do but I am not sure that we should even list the higher priority work there. Would it put potential contributors off by making them feel that they would have more pressure on them when they are just finding their feet in the project?

I also would prefer to not have the pagination - it is suffering from a similar problem to the pagination on the dashboard. Why would you want to show only 5 tickets at a time when you hit the query page view?

Hmm, I have just thought of another alternative to dropping pagination if it affects this too. Perhaps it would be simpler to provide some kind of extension to the query language to limit the query to the first N tickets.

Cheers,
    Gary

I've adjusted the query on
https://issues.apache.org/bloodhound/wiki/BloodhoundContributing - I'm
happy to adjust it again if necessary. The two enhancements are:

   * specify that owner should be nobody
       o this appears to be the simplest and most reliable way to make
         sure that the set is only unclaimed tickets although it does
         require that we don't assign to a blank owner
   * change count=5 to max=5
       o the count argument appears to be for something else (although I
         am not convinced that functionality works)


This is implemented through the following change:

     -[[TicketQuery(table, ?status=!closed&keywords=~starter, count=5)]]
     +[[TicketQuery(table, ?status=!closed&keywords=~starter&owner=nobody,
max=5)]]

I would try to offer the result with no further judgement but I don't
think the pagination is quite what we are after here.

I went ahead and tagged the #119, #18, #95, #154 and #123 as starter
tickets. I've also added a table dynamically displaying 5 starter tickets
to the top of the BloodhoundContributing page:
https://issues.apache.org/bloodhound/wiki/BloodhoundContributing

Hope that helps as a starting point. Happy for others to extend it. Gary
for example suggested off-list to me that tickets that are assigned to
someone other than 'nobody' or accepted should be excluded, certainly a
valid suggestion.

Well , I already added «starter» keyword in #203 ... feel free to
change it if appropriate . In the end any word is fine to me , as long
as its use becomes well-known and consistent across all the project .

oh !
ok . I recall we also had another previous conversation about this too
, that's why I suggested doing so .

Definitely workflow states are much more needed , so I think I prefer
keyword + workflow approach too .

This overlaps with two conversations we've had recently on the
mailing
list:

1. Adding an appropriate tag to 'starter' tickets
2. Providing appropriate ticket states, like 'awaiting review / to be
reviewed' rather than 'open' for the tickets you refer to in your PS.

I prefer those two approaches personally.

It's just a suggestion . What do you think ?

Towards a more generic discussion I'd point out that maybe we should
have a custom field like «difficulty» highlighting prior
expectations
of the skills needed to complete a task / close a ticket . A query
like difficulty=low|moderate could be used to find all such tickets
... and maybe even a link could be added in BloodhoundContribute as
well ;)

Of course , that should be setup starting from release 3 ... release
2
is almost done ;)

PS: Many things can be learned by reviewing patches submitted to the
isssue tracker as well . Most of the tickets assigned to user olemis
will have some . Those scheduled for Release 2 have been baked
«recently» ;)
