Hi,
I'd like to ask that issues reported by PMC members and core developers
get less strict reviews.
When I find an issue that's rather complex I usually describe
how to reproduce it, but I lack the time to write sample projects, at
least when reporting. When i get around to it I reproduce the issue and fix
it in svn - I normally don't attach tests since I can commit in core, and i
think
that goes for more developers.
Anyway, the incomplete resolution is fine, but closing them will make them
rather hard to find back. Maybe we could just assign these issues to the
reporters instead, status to 'feedback' or 'incomplete', 'on hold' or whatever.
In the future I'll try to attach the tests as I create the issue, though that'll
take me 30 mins more and when I'm in time pressure I feel it's better to report
the issue so it doesn't slip my mind, than to not do it at all because of the
high
overhead.
wdyt?

Hi,
The 2.0.7 release will go out tomorrow, and in order to get some decent
vote feedback it would be good to clean up JIRA so that we have an
accurate 2.0.x list people can vote on for issues they would like fixed
in 2.0.8. I created a "Documentation" version so that technical issues
wouldn't be polluted by documentation issues. I also created a "Reviewed
Pending Version Assignment" where I put everything that's probably been
looked at (probably not entirely true) so that anything coming in from
now on in the unscheduled we can process. I think between all of us we
can probably keep that empty most weeks by assigning a version, closing
if duplicated, or closing due to being incomplete.
Some simple things you can do if you have a few minutes to spare:
- look in the reviewed pending version assignment and try to put the
issue in 2.0.x or 2.1.x
- pick your favorite component and look for duplicates
- issues describing a remotely complicated problem without a sample
project get close as incomplete
- look at issues you've reported and check and see if they have been
resolved
- linking issues up that look similiar so we can close issues together
if they are resolved.
Even if we get rid of the complete cruft like already resolved, dupes,
and incomplete issues that will greatly help.
Thanks,
Jason
