[Inkscape-devel] Bug Hunt for 0.91

Welcome to the first bug hunt for the 0.91 release. This hunt focuses on regression bugs. Traditionally, we specify a point target for us to reach, and award us points based on the severity of the bug: 3, 6, 9, or 12 points for low, medium, high, and critical. This bug hunt's goal is 500 points worth of bugs from the following list: http://tinyurl.com/bughunt91a You'll note a few dozen regressions were already fixed, so we'll count that as a (207 point) headstart on the effort. Here's a couple more links to list only the open or closed bugs: http://tinyurl.com/bughunt91a-open http://tinyurl.com/bughunt91a-closed [I'll write a launchpadlib script to calculate the score from the latter list, unless someone's ambitious and beats me to it!] We only give points for true bug fixes - not bugs simply closed due to being dupes, invalid, works-for-me, or whatnot. Once the bug is fixed in the mainline branch, set its status to Fix Committed, and it'll tally as a fixed regression. Bug Hunt Goal: 500 points Current: 207 points If you're not a developer, you can still help by seeing if you can reproduce the bug yourself, and posting your findings. If you have an idea on how to fix the bug, but don't have the time to do it yourself, then outlining your thoughts on the bug may help junior developers pick it up and implement the changes. If you're an experienced developer, consider posting an invitation to an IRC bug party for the time period you'll be working, if you're willing to help pilot junior developers and sponsor their patches. I will be posting scoring updates a couple times a week until we're done. Bryce
