 Hi all,

Hey! Great team.

 * Move issues to our todo on wiki if they are clear candidates for that.
 Please check out our current
 http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Dev:2.5/Source/Development/Todo of
 what to expect. When reporting a bug, it would be nice to check from
 here too. For this I've added a 'todo' resolution status to indicate
 this. Note that this list also functions as a means to other(, new)
 developers to look for tasks and create patches for those.

Please don't forget the Short-term target, there is a thread and a 
wiki page on this:

http://blenderartists.org/forum/showthread.php?t=178149
http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Dev:2.5/Source/Development/Status/MissingFeatures#Features_missing_in_2.5x_from_2.49

But it seems that at least the thread is not updated in the last weeks.

 notably the closing of bugs to move to todo, and probably a more
 rigorous closing policy on bugs that don't see activity from reporters.

Please don't forget that making good reports is also a hard and unpaid 
work, sometimes even frustrating (e.g. double reports due to the chaotic 
bugtracker with no simple way to search (hint: use the CSV Export to 
search...)). So *I* think that a week to react is a bit short, 
especially if it is a bug which strikes when a project needs to be done, 
then you tend to write the first report and go on to find a workaround 
which will fade the focus to other things.

Best Regards,
Carsten

Hi Nathan,
could you (or someone) refresh my mind on what the bug Resolution stand for?
Specifically when to use: New, Investigate, Ready, Approved and Fixed.

Also one remind. It's always nice for people to test the problem in
Blender 2.49. Maybe that could even be part of the bug report
guidelines.

Thanks,
Dalai

 Hi all,

 Our team of Janne, Campbell, Diego and I have started our work on the
 bug tracker and other duties assigned.

 For handling the tracker we've had a short discussion on how to approach
 this. The following summary will serve as our guideline, and I hope by
 communicating it here it also will help the rest of our developers and
 users to be able to help to their best of abilities:

 * React to new reports in a day, at least with assigning or some
 comment. We'll see in the coming week(s) how we manage.
 * If reporters don't respond in a week on request for comments: close
 report.
 * Move issues to our todo on wiki if they are clear candidates for that.
 Please check out our current
 http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Dev:2.5/Source/Development/Todo of
 what to expect. When reporting a bug, it would be nice to check from
 here too. For this I've added a 'todo' resolution status to indicate
 this. Note that this list also functions as a means to other(, new)
 developers to look for tasks and create patches for those.
 * If a bug fixing attempt looks like it needs more than a day time, ask
 other developers/code owners for their help: don't waste time too much
 on one report (but ultimately all reports should be solved one way or
 another).
 * Bugs for code with clear code owners will be assigned to them.

 There are probably not many differences to what we've done before, most
 notably the closing of bugs to move to todo, and probably a more
 rigorous closing policy on bugs that don't see activity from reporters.

 I'll make a habit out of reporting our weekly work, this being the first
 - and late at that :)

 Summary for week 35:
 Not much to tell yet, but:
 * Janne Karhu has been busy fixing many particle related bugs. All
 particle related bugs are assigned too.
 * Campbell has been working on the RNA and fixing bugs.
 * I have been going over our tracker, also looking at older reports and
 been fixing bugs and closing reports.
