Hi, Roger!
As discussed, I did some Tor bug triage tonight. Here's what I did:
* I made a new "Tor: very long term" (formerly "Tor: distant future") milestone for stuff too long-term to be in "Tor: unspecified." Now we will no longer have "unspecified" mean "maybe never" to some of us and "I honestly don't know" to others. * I made a new "tor: 0.2.4.x" milestone * I went through every ticket in "post 0.2.3.x" (there were like 3 or 4) and reassigned them someplace better. * I went through every ticket without a component. * I went through every ticket in Tor: unspecified to see if it belonged there. Surprisingly, very few of them belonged in "Tor: very long term". * I went through every ticket without a milestone that was assigned to one of the core Tor components (that is, Tor Bridge, Tor Hidden Service, Tor Directory Authority, Tor Client, Tor Relay). Now they all have milestones; some few of them also have comments, or are closed.
Still to do, possibly by me, possibly not:
* Triage all 233 open 0.2.3.x tickets. The ones that are feature-like, big, and not planned to get done by nov 30 should get punted to "unspecified" or 0.2.4.x or "very long term." The ones that are feature-like and small should get ordinary triage. The ones that are bugs should get priorities assigned, or marked as deferrable, or such. * Triage all 23 open 0.2.2.x-final tickets. Some of these are bugs that we believe *should* have their fixes applied on 0.2.2; some are merely bugs that *exist* in 0.2.2, but which might not be important enough to alter a stable release. * Triage all core-Tor bugs in a milestone other than 0.2.2.x-final, 0.2.3.x-final, 0.2.4.x-final, unspecified, or very long term.
Next steps for Roger here:
* Go over the "Unspecified" stuff I've triaged to see if you agree. It should be cleaner than it was before,
happy Thanksgiving,
