[Cooker] Bug handling survey - Tree based models
Hello Mandrake contributors, I am conducting a survey about the way bugs are handled in open source software projects. The survey includes questions that can be answered by developers,testers, bug fixers, project managers, and owners of defect databases. It is only and only for research purposes and it is very easy to fill out. It consists of three short sections which can be completed at once or in different sessions. Please fill it out if you haven't done yet. You will find the questions interesting since there is a reason behind each one one of them. They will make you think about how things work (or could work)in your project. The survey can be found in the address: http://www.seas.smu.edu/~gkoru/surveys/dhsurvey.html The data in the bug databases can be used to identify the high risk areas in the software development. One of the ways of doing it is constructing tree-based models, which could be very useful in open source projects. If you would like to read about it, I prepared a web page for you: http://www.seas.smu.edu/~gkoru/surveys/tbdm1.html Please accept my apologies if you receive duplicates of this e-mail. This is a survey, which will give useful results for all of us. I will try to prepare and make some preliminary results on-line within the next two weeks. Since this is a survey, covering many important open source projects, it will be interesting for everybody to see what kind of quality assurance work is going on in the other projects. As always, we are very dedicated to this research. Please contact me for any question you might have. Thank you, A. Gunes Koru http://www.engr.smu.edu/~gkoru

Dear Frederic and Maksim, Thanks for bringing it up. As you might understand, I am in contact with many projects. It is not easy to invite the developers in KDE, Gnome, Apache, OpenOffice and all major projects. I trust your understanding. Some of you might need to hit delete key a couple of times. We apologize for that. Related to SPAM issue, SPAM means unsolicited, uninvited mail which usually has a commercial nature. The e-mail I sent is directed to increase the quality just like any other e-mail sent to the lists. Another thing in the SPAM is, it is unsolicited, not required. I will argue that if my e-mail is not required than automatically none of the e-mails will be required in this list. Just like any one, I am expressing useful ideas, which has great potential impacts. I think it is an important right for everyone in this list. I think we need to respect each other's rights. Because once we remove this right, even indirectly, then there is nothing left. I hope i could anwer your concerns. If you haven't done so, I invite you to participate in the survey. If you have further questions please to contact me individually. Thanks for your support, Regards, On Fri, 4 Oct 2002, Frederic Crozat wrote: > On Fri, 04 Oct 2002 10:48:08 -0500, Gunes Koru wrote: > > > > > Hi all contributors of Mandrake, > > > > As you might have heard, I am conducting a bug handling survey on: > > Strange, this mail has just been sent to gnome-devel mailing list.. > > We might almost consider that as SPAM :)) > -- *** A.
