Like I mentioned in the previous thread, I am more than happy to help out in any way. I have always wanted to get involved in Fedora, and I am currently an Ambassador. I would like to do more "hands-on" work in the distro itself, but I have no programming experience. Bug triage seems like a cool thing to do for someone like me.
Would it be possible to start an ember on BugZappers? What can I do to help?
Right now, as a practical consideration, you can still read all the instructional stuff in the BugZappers wiki space, pick a component, and put a lot of it into practice. It doesn't really depend on anything other than Bugzilla being there. So far as getting triaging going as an organized project again (a sub-project of QA this time), there was a thread started on the test@ list I think a few weeks back by someone else who is interested; unfortunately I wasn't able to contribute a constructive reply yet as I've been busy with F19 stuff :( But that makes two of you who are interested in trying to drive triage in some way. The thread I'm thinking of is https://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/test/2013-February/114008.html
- William got in touch with me directly before I encouraged him to post
to the list, and he's definitely interested in getting triage going again, so I'm sure he'd be happy to hear from someone else who's interested. Thanks!
it's better the individuals interested in triaging just contact the maintainer(s) of the relevant components they are interested in triaging for directly, get their permission and start working with them rather then trying yet again to start another official QA effort which will just die in $next-release JBG
