Thanks Alberto for organizing this, on the courtesy to me don't worry, if you want you can send it to our Loco team and we can include it in the lottery that we run after each release party among the participants (send it to the team coordinator, you can find addresses at http://loco.ubuntu.com/teams/ubuntu.cat/). Now, some (constructive, hopefully) comments: 1) In the part of "confirming" bugs, first I think we discussed some months ago that confirming bugs is not the most important part of managing bugs, as there are a lot of confirmed bugs that where confirmed just because two users saw it. The most important part is, in my opinion, checking if the reporter can provide more information, and seeing if it can be triaged. Second I find it almost impossible to deal with bugs if I don't concentrate in specific packages, issues, and so on. Otherwise each bug is so different from the next that I never get on speed on dealing with them. 2) On the part of paper cuts, I find that the list was not very useful. None of those bugs were, in my humble opinion, really "bitesize". some of them wouldn't make sense to handle as an Ubuntu package as they where of an upstream nature, and so on. But again, thanks for the effort. Last comment is that I think, and this is something that we discussed also lot of times, old bugs shouldn't be ignored, and some effort should be dedicated to clean those old bugs. This is one of the easiest task for new bug triagers, but not a nice thing to do, users who get the first answer after several months of an unattended bug can dedicate you really nice insults, especially if they have moved away from Ubuntu long ago. But better late than never. -- Walter Garcia-Fontes _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~papercuts-ninja Post to : papercuts-ninja@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~papercuts-ninja More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
