Ok. I admit my original email was a bit terse but it was mostly to see if there was buy in first, and it seems there is! > It's almost October... how can we support this effort.

I'd aim for several (non-consecutive) days, say 4, so that: * people that can't make it to one event can attend another one * people who attended one then tried to triage bugs and encountered difficulties have an opportunity to get further training * we see results, as one session is a bit too little to have a real impact in my opinion > Mentors!

There's https://wiki.gnome.org/Bugsquad that can be used as a starting point, but as Allan pointed out this needs to be revived. FWIW I'll be on the mentor side, but of course I can't be the only one and I'll try to get other experimented triagers to participate. > Marketing.
