Great! The only bugs that I now have assigned to myself are the ones that I worked on but are waiting for a review and/or merge, or bugs that I am actively working on. Which I am trying to limit to just one at a time.
Just a general reminder: don't forget to un-assign yourself and set the status accordingly when you are done with a bug. When Richard and I pre-triaged on friday, we encountered many open bugs that were actually already fixed and merged. S.
