What are you talking about? This whole discussion was framed with the situation where the *developer* determines that the bug report has merit. From my original post: "In the bug, I believe the dev implies that the reported bug has merit /yet he closes the bug before actually doing something about it/." > Most compilation > bugs that I have seen are usually due to user not maintaining their > configurations properly. Then that wouldn't be something that a dev would submit a fix for, now would it? > You also still fail to understand that most > of us maintain more packages than just one and it is impossible for us > to take and drop what we are working on to help test and confirm that > a bug does exist and is not user error. Again, you are confusing what I am suggesting with a completely different situation. NEVER have I suggested that user configuration problems should have some elaborate verification process. > As far as team leads go they > make sure the project stay on task and packages and bugs are handled > in a timely manner. Great! My hat's off to them! > I would like to know do you want us to have 15 > devs test for a particular bug if a team lead is not avaliable or > would you like us to have just 2 people test? OK, now you're rambling. If a team lead isn't available they should have a designated sub. That has nothing to do with the bug closer process; that is a Gentoo organization issue. > This has gotten way out of control with time and how issues are > delt with, personally I think that you have a vendictive against a few > devs that have closed bugs on you that they have not been able to > replicate and/or find invalid. Yes, that tinfoil hat is paying off nicely for you. ;) Seriously, my suggestion has nothing to with bugs that are found to be invalid. Please read the thread carefully and that should become apparent. Furthermore, I don't hold grudges against people who disagree with me. And lastly, what bugs have I filed that were marked invalid that would lead me to start this great conspiracy against some devs? Please enlighten me: http://bugs.gentoo.org/query.cgi?format=advanced > I can not say either way all I know is > you in FACT have a misconception of how much time goes into testing > before a package is moved to stable. Now you're a mind reader too. Please tell me what else I have a misconception about. I'm sure my life will be greatly enriched by your sage wisdom in the matter! ;) If you want to continue the flamewar, I suggest we take it off this mailing list; other subscribers might not find it as entertaining as I do...
