Hello everyone,<br><br>Next week, on Tuesday 6th April, Edubuntu are
looking to host a collaborative bug day between the Edubuntu Bugsquad,
and the Ubuntu Bugsquad.<br><br>The day will be focusing on the
educational packages in ubuntu, (i.e. the ones included in Edubuntu). A
list of these packages, and the bug reports filed under them can be
found at <a href="http://tinyurl.com/EduBugs" target="_blank">http://tinyurl.com/EduBugs</a>
.<br>
<br>There are 300 open bugs there, 262 unassigned, and only 3 in
progress!<br><br>This urgently needs to get sorted. Developers cannot
be expected to find bugs that need fixing when there are bugs listed
there that haven't been replied to and were reported in gutsy.<br>
<br>We would very grateful if the Ubuntu bugsquad could take part in
this day. Because these are bugs in ubuntu packages also, and you have
over 1000 members on launchpad. If your team of bug-squashing
enthusiasts was a third the size of what it is, it would still only
require each member to triage 1 before everything was sorted out.<br>
<br>The Edubuntu bugsquad on the other hand has only 78 members, and it
is hard to say how many are active. We could host as many bug days as
we want and still not get this fixed. But if the Ubuntu bug squad are
willing to take part, then we can have this sorted in no time at all,
and the developers can come in and do their thing.<font color="#888888"><br><br>Ben<br></font>
