<div class="moz-cite-prefix">Hi<br>
<br>
Thank you Andreas for the update about the status of the finances.
What would be the cost of 2 * half a week + bug queue management?
I understand the € 14'800 is before having paied Jürgen and
Martin. What is the amount on our account after all the bug fixing
activities?<br>
<br>
I'm most likely in favor of the additional work, but imho it is
hard to vote on something without knowing the exact numbers.<br>
<br>
>* we need some more efficient decision system.<br>
<br>
The delay of the release is not something that happened
unexpectedly. I can hardly remind a release where it did not
happen. So instead of a quicker decision system we need a budget
plan.<br>
<br>
Regards,<br>
Marco<br>

</span>Hi all.<br>
I agree:<br>
* we need a better classification system to prioritize the
importance<br>
of bugs (I still think the Debian approach is a good one)<br>
* we need someone managing the bug queue, particularly
during the<br>
freezing period, but also outside it<br>
* we need some more efficient decision system.<br>
All in all, this boils down to investing some resource to
support key<br>
roles. I'd suggest to send the OK straight away for an
extra 2 days of<br>
bugfixing for both Martin and Juergen, and discuss the
issue in the<br>
next PSC meeting.<br>
<span class="">All the best.<br>

</div>
<div>Can I suggest then that (if we have the funds) we pay
Giovanni to also spend two days reviewing the tickets and
feeding Martin and Juergen the highest priority issues
after establishing how to reproduce them.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>+1 from me for them to proceed</div>
