[geomoose-psc] Trac notifications?

Focusing back on Trac notifications and being responsive to tickets
that are entered (or funneling them back to the email list)...

Being the default owner means you have some obligation to clarify and
verify the ticket, discuss on the email list if needed, and then
provide some response to the reporter.  Then you can remove your
ownership, the main point is to not have tickets go unnoticed for
extended periods of time.  Changing the owner from yourself to
unassigned is a little tricky as I recall, but I think it is possible.

I've taken 'Docs' and 'Website', Brian has 'UserExtensions' and
'GeoMoose/PHP', which leaves,
        BuildTools
        Demo
        GeoMOOSE/JS
        Infrastructure

I think that Bob is volunteering for 'Demo'.

Is there any interest to have this email list get notice of the
tickets that no one claims?  I'll add this to the agenda of the next
PSC meeting.

To claim a component, in Trac, click on Admin tab, then click on
component and fill in your username in the owner field.
