mmm.... yes java@g.o would be a good place instead of here to email |
| 2 |
it. |

Basically the aim I have for this is too draw the attention of you dev's to |
| 5 |
bugs that are a 'quick' fix. |
| 6 |
|
| 7 |
Therefore meeting the aim of closing bugs without you guys having to do most |
| 8 |
of the investigation... |
| 9 |
|
| 10 |
I have also though of going thru bugs.gentoo.org and reassigning the |
| 11 |
priority of bugs into categories (rather a large job for anyone who has |
| 12 |
other projects they want to get kicking). |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
eg (as a very ruff guess) |
| 15 |
So P1 would be for security exploits and the like. |
| 16 |
P2 would be for ebuild related buys |
| 17 |
P3 ebuild request |
| 18 |
P4 ebuild request that are extremely difficult (or just can't happen because |
| 19 |
of lack of resources) |
| 20 |
P5 (something even worse than above) |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
I also believe that there should be some bugs marked as WONTFIX, CANTFIX. |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
For example jboss https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=148383 and |
| 25 |
https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=66965 |
| 26 |
|
| 27 |
I believe, and it will be interesting in hereing your views on this, that |
| 28 |
bugs should only be open if they are actually going to be worked on. With |
| 29 |
jboss we now have a binary ebuild in the overlay that could replace the |
| 30 |
existing versions and these jboss bugs could be closed. |
| 31 |
|
| 32 |
What do you guys think? |
