Triage party!

[Mark Côté]

Hi Bugzilla contributors, as discussed during our meeting last week (of
which I will be posting minutes in a day or two), I'd like to hold a
triage party soon.  We can go through as many open bugs as possible with
the goals of

1. moving feature-request bugs that are potentially useful but too far
from our road map into an Extension Ideas component,

2. closing bugs that are duplicates or invalid (probably not many of
those, but you never know what might have slipped by) or that are not
suitable for either core or an extension, and

3. identifying good first bugs.

I think the best way to do this would be to get the full list of open
bugs and divide them up by the number of attendees, and then
individually assess them for the above points.  As I mentioned in the
meeting, I think we should, as the Wikipedia says, "be bold"; there's a
history of every change, and many of subscribe to all changes in bugs in
the Bugzilla product so we can audit either as we go or after the
meeting and revert any mistakes.  Otherwise, if we go through each bug
together, we won't get very far.  That said, everyone should feel free
to ask for clarification on any bug; that's part of the point of getting
us all together (the other is to alleviate boredom :)

I suggest Wednesday, May 7, at 14:00 UTC (the same time spot as our
regular meetings), in the Bugzilla Vidyo room and on IRC in #bugzilla
(*not* #bugzilla-meeting, since we can potentially benefit from anyone
hanging around in #bugzilla!).  I don't think we'll bother to broadcast
to Air Mozilla for this, unless anyone desires.

If there are no suggestions of a better time, see you all then!

Mark
