Rietveld Issue (linked in the tracker) Tracker itself Colin says he scans all the email lists too (although I personally wouldn't scan 'user' - only because there are already a lot of places to check if you include bug and dev) Anything more is just going beyond what is expected. There are often enough eyes on things to catch patches that shouldn't be pushed but have been set as such because no one comments. It seems that some devs like to put a LGTM whereas others just flag problems when there is one a sort of 'new news is good news approach'. Some parts of the code only one or two can probably comment on anyway/ - what does _put_the_issue_on_push_status_ mean exactly It means you find the issue on the trackjer and chang its status from Patch-Review, to Patch-Countdown then to Patch-push. So it sounds like you spend a lot of time in the tracker. :) I will see in the next few days what information I can gather from CG or the Google issue tracker There may not be anything useful at this time - I haven't checked but Colin said he would update the CG guide with this information (or at least what he does) before he finishes this weekend. regards James ___ bug-lilypond mailing list bug-lilypond@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-lilypond

Bug Squad Rota
Greetings Colin, Bug Squaders, and Developers - Thanks, Colin, for running the scripts and reporting the Bug squad metrics. I have a request to make. I live in the eastern U.S., and at least some of the Bug Squaders appear to live in Europe. My usual (most reliable) time on the computer on the weekend is in the morning. As a result, I frequently don't have any bugs to evaluate when I get up on Saturday morning, and I frequently don't get back to the Bug List until Sunday morning. By that time, someone in Europe has usually snagged my Saturday bugs. In the interest of equity of labor, I'm requesting that someone who has one of the weekdays (where I'm more often at the computer later in the day) switch with me. If no one wishes to switch, I can stay on Saturday, but I probably won't catch as many bugs as I ought. I appreciate your time, your attention, and your help, Ralph ___ bug-lilypond mailing list bug-lilypond@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-lilypond

In the interest of equity of labor, I'm requesting that someone who has one of the weekdays (where I'm more often at the computer later in the day) switch with me. If you would like to change shifts, that's fine, Ralph. Generally I think the amount of work people do goes up and down depending upon their availability. Certainly true for me, and I think we just pick up the slack for each other, and that's fine. Much of my bug squad work is done between 22:00 and 01:00 GMT so I often don't start handling reports until many hours after my shift has started, local time. An idea I have used in the past is a virtual or physical token that is passed around the team to signal the handover of responsibility. When you've done your bit you send a subject-only email to the squad (not bug-lilypond) saying Bug squad token free. When the next squad member comes on shift, or if someone wants to do some extra, they send an email saying Bug squad token taken. This does not replace the rota; we would still have allotted days.

I think that might be unnecessarily bureaucratic. Simply holding the bug-lilypond emails in your mail system as a backlog, and then working through them when you come on shift is the right way to go. This is the approach documented in the CG. or are there other models how to treat this? See my earlier email about token passing. Might help. I can also offer to take another day (iso Tuesday); on Tuesdays I most often can only look into Lilypond later in the afternoon - which probably is still early for people in the US. Thanks, Eluze, but I think you are already doing a lot. I see that you are very active supporting users on the lilypond-user list, in addition to your bug squad work.
