Hello, dear packaging teams. As an aid for helping and motivating your bug squashing efforts, I have created bug graphs for the main packaging teams (as far as I know). Please tell me if could be other people interested.
A little history: As part of XSF, some time ago I tried to reduce the bug count for X packages. But I was somewhat blind, as I didn't know how many bugs we had and how many bugs I fixed. Several months later, Brice Goglin started a wonderful crusade against old X bugs that are creeping in our BTS. Also, other teams were working hard to release with not that many bugs. :-) So...I was trying to help with some tool since *a lot* of time ago, and in January I had enough of waiting, so one night I wrote some scripts based on pusling's work for KDE, but with nicer graphs (rrdtool). The result is: http://ftp.es.debian.org/~ender/XSF_bugs/graphs/total.png http://ftp.es.debian.org/~ender/KDE_bugs/graphs/total.png http://ftp.es.debian.org/~ender/GNOME_bugs/graphs/total.png http://ftp.es.debian.org/~ender/XFCE_bugs/graphs/total.png http://ftp.es.debian.org/~ender/d-i_bugs/graphs/total.png http://ftp.es.debian.org/~ender/kernel_bugs/graphs/total.png I think that the graph explains itself. There is a version for every package under team's control, for example: http://ftp.es.debian.org/~ender/GNOME_bugs/graphs/totem.png http://ftp.es.debian.org/~ender/XFCE_bugs/graphs/xfce4-panel.png http://ftp.es.debian.org/~ender/KDE_bugs/graphs/kdebase.png ... (sorry for the gap, it was due to merkel being down). Statistics are updated every 6 hours from the QA page for every address, and it automatically creates structure for new packages, so no need for manual interaction. These graphs cover the last 2 weeks. For the last 2 months and last 12 months, I have created additional graphs. You have all the needed graphs in the top directory of each team: http://ftp.es.debian.org/~ender/XSF_bugs/ http://ftp.es.debian.org/~ender/KDE_bugs/ http://ftp.es.debian.org/~ender/GNOME_bugs/ http://ftp.es.debian.org/~ender/XFCE_bugs/ http://ftp.es.debian.org/~ender/d-i_bugs/ http://ftp.es.debian.org/~ender/kernel_bugs/ Shortcomings: - The change to rrdtool 1.2 will make uglier graphs. As a remedy, I adopted rrdtool package to see if I can fix it. :-) - There is a hole at February 15th. I do not know what problem had qa.debian.org, but zeroed all the queries. If you know of any other team that would like to have those statistics, or you have any other suggestion, please let me know.
