Category: Ubuntu Tutorials, News — Christer Edwards @ 9:32 pm —

Christer Edwards has a good link from his blog today (ubuntu-tutorials.com)…
“I worked on 5 bugs today. A few of them were new bugs that I found in Hardy, a few of them were follow-ups with previous bugs that I’d worked on or submitted. I think the 5-A-Day is a great program, and I’m glad to see so many people have jumped on board. I’m going to try and continue working on it.

…I just hope I can get the bugs worked out of update-signature so I can actually share the bugs I’ve worked on”

From the Ubuntu Wiki:

What you can do? That’s up to you, your interests and your abilities.

If you’re a developer, you can help out reviewing patches and getting them uploaded.
If you want to just confirm new bugs, you can do that.
If you’ve experience with a certain package and want to triage bugs you can do that and forward them upstream if necessary.
If you know your way around Ubuntu quite well, you can help assign bugs to the right package.

and…

What you need to do to participate?

  • If you haven’t helped out with bugs before you might want to take a look at Bugs/HowToTriage or ask the nice people on #ubuntu-bugson - irc.freenode.net.

Anybody who reports bugs
Did you report a bug on a previous release of Ubuntu?

  • Is it the best quality bug report it could be?
    • Could it use a better summary or a test case?
  • Do you know if the bug is still occurs in the development release?

You can review the bugs you’ve reported at https://bugs.launchpad.net/people/+me/+reportedbugs .
