The focus of the developers should be 1.1 of course, but if there is a important 1.0 bug I will assign it to one of the developers (including me of course). You are free to assign 1.0 bugs to yourself, if you think you can fix the problem. An assigned bug report (regardless who made the assignement) for 1.0 tickets means, that you are allowed to commit your fix (if it's tested and complete) without asking for permission again. but please comment this in the ticket, with something like: "bugfix commited in revision 1234". Never commit something without an assigned ticket. For every other update please use the mailinglist, especially if it's not for fixing a reported bug or if the fix/update is so compex that it might break other stuff. Only exclusion are dangerous security issues in packages or some other part of our system. Please don't report them as bugs or on a mailinglist, because this can be dangerous for our users as long as there is no fix available. After fixing them a new bug report will be opened by me and a new release will be prepared. Maybe we should have a freewrt-int-security mailinglist for that, where only active developers should be able to read the security bug reports at first, so they can work on implementing a patch. It would be unwise to just report them to my emailadress, because none of the other developers would notice that. and please don't close 1.0 bugs yourself, even if the bug is fixed or when you believe that the user is wrong or something like that. If I want to keep track on existing bugs and the release status, then I must be sure to see every ticket (and all of their comments). I will close these tickets as soon as I have noticed a successfull fix has been commited and a new version has been released. Not closing bugs before the next version has been released helps other users with the same problem to find a solution until the next version is available. this also should help to avoid having the same ticket over and over again from diffrent users. this are my first thoughts about handling 1.0 in future. feel free to comment on this. if there is something that you think should get handled in another way, don't hesitate to speak up :) n8, Ralph _______________________________________________ freewrt-developers mailing list [email protected] https://www.freewrt.org/lists/listinfo/freewrt-developers
