Stefan, This is an excellent e-mail. (By the way, I saw your picture online the other day and was surprised at how young you are. I guess your wisdom had me picturing you as some old university professor.) :]
If we came up with a bug classification system I would be willing to spend a couple of weeks every few months working on bugs during a freeze. I also like the idea of making task groups or assigning different responsibilities. I think you could already put Peppe and I down for documentaiton and OpenJUMP help. :] SS On 9/18/07, Stefan Steiniger <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hei,.. > > took me a long time to come to this email. > It is longer than intended .. and i actually don't want to start the > discussion on this now, as some people are still in holidays and i am > busy with other things as well. > > 1) my comments on the release strategy > =========================== > * first when moving on with the disucssion we shall wait until Andreas > is back from vacations > * i agree that we need a system.. but which one? > * i like the classification proposed by Michael (but inverted ;) It is > a very good start, and we shall adopt it!
