Hi all,

last weekend I wanted to check whether I can try to use 4.1 for my daily work with acceptable risk. Using such a trunk version for normal work is a much more manifold and reliable test than testing with prepared testcases (what, of course, have to be done, too!).

I am used to do a query for regressions in trunk, what will allow to check whether there are known 4.1 regressions affecting my daily work. And fascinating, my query showed 1 Regression in 200 Bugs with Version 4.1 (I forgot what one it was). That sounds good, but it is completely implausible that our 200 unfixed 4.1.0-dev DEFECT bugs all are about new features. And that tells that information in Bugzilla database is totally unreliable, not useful for such decisions.

I already started a review of Bugs in query [1]. Very often Version has been changed erroneous from an older version to 4.1, sometimes additionally I see reports with Status "Confirmed" what are no bugs at all (Bug 106106, Bug 97818), or at least are very unclear (Bug 96263.

May be some volunteers can assist?

Best regards

Rainer
