Hello Liam,

It is never too early to create a Launchpad bug.  That said, we generally do 
not add a milestone target until a pullrequest branch is ready, as this limits 
distraction and prevents a lot of milestone churn.  Occasionally exceptions are 
made in cases where there is high confidence that a branch will be ready in 
time for the milestone, so the milestone is added early to indicate intention.

Thanks,
Dan

targeting [RM2.6]

Hi Dan,

I have a few improvements to the staff client that I am still testing 
internally, but I plan to push them into 2.6 at some point.  Would it be best 
to create launchpad bugs for them now?

Hello all,

Just a quick reminder that today is the last day to target bugs for inclusion 
in 2.6 alpha.  As in past releases, new features will still be permitted until 
beta, which is scheduled for early February.  That said, the sooner something 
is ready and targeted, the more likely it will be reviewed and included in 2.6, 
so please don't miss this opportunity to get some attention for your branch.

Here is the current list of bug reports in the 2.6.0-alpha1 milestone which 
also have pullrequest tags:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/evergreen/+bugs?field.status%3Alist=NEW&field.status%3Alist=CONFIRMED&field.status%3Alist=TRIAGED&field.status%3Alist=INPROGRESS&field.status%3Alist=INCOMPLETE_WITH_RESPONSE&field.status%3Alist=INCOMPLETE_WITHOUT_RESPONSE&assignee_option=any&field.milestone%3Alist=62053&field.tag=pullrequest&field.tags_combinator=ANY&search=Search&orderby=id&start=0

This is the list which I am asking reviewers focus on over the next few days, 
but as you can see, the list is relatively small.  In contrast, here is a list 
of *all* un-committed pullrequests:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/evergreen/+bugs?field.status%3Alist=NEW&field.status%3Alist=CONFIRMED&field.status%3Alist=TRIAGED&field.status%3Alist=INPROGRESS&field.status%3Alist=INCOMPLETE_WITH_RESPONSE&field.status%3Alist=INCOMPLETE_WITHOUT_RESPONSE&assignee_option=any&field.tag=pullrequest&field.tags_combinator=ANY&search=Search&orderby=-milestone&memo=75&start=0&direction=backwards

I couldn't figure out a way to exclude the items already targeted at 2.6 (the 
first list), but I was able to sort them to the bottom.  As you can see, we (at 
the time of this writing) have 70+ pullrequests which are either targeted only 
at old branches or not targeted at all.  Many of these are stale and should 
probably be invalidated, but many others should rightly be targeted at 2.6.  If 
you are able, please take some time today to review the second list, and apply 
the 2.6.0-alpha1 milestone (or invalidate) as you deem appropriate.

As always, please reply to this thread if you have any questions or concerns.

Thank you,
Dan
