From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This past week looks like a reply of the previous week.

1.18 Tarball
Talked to Robla … think it is going out tonight.
FIXME Chasing
Krinkle didn't fix his fixme but pointed out that it probably shouldn't block the tarball. I tend to agree.
Patch applying
I got a few more patches applied last week. Better, Rusty Burchfield developed a tool to check old patches and see if they still apply. Using this he was able to eliminate most older patches. Only about 50 remain that will still apply and, hence, still need to be reviewed. Sumana has said that she'll send email to old patch submitters.
Bugzilla Metrics
I decided to set up a replica of the publically available information in bugzilla database on toolserver. I was able to build quite a bit on Claudia's work and began importing the initial bug states from the email archives. I want to have a graph up on toolserver like Robla's crstats (see my copy with old data) to track bugs submitted and resolved, patches submitted etc.
I've known for a while that there is a wealth of information in there, but I've (so far) lacked experience with creating graphs of this sort.
