[Qgis-psc] Fwd: Re: QGIS 2.16 bug fixing work

[Andreas Neumann]

Hi,

I asked QGIS devs if they would be available for bug fixing.

I got this comment (see below) from Martin - regarding maintaining our 
bug reporting repository.

Maybe you have some comments or suggestions? Should we allocate more of 
our funds to maintaining the bug queue? Should we have a second person 
next to Giovanni or ask Giovanni if he could allocate more time to it?

Greetings,
Andreas

Hi Andreas

Thanks for the mail... I should be available for 3 days of bug fixing.

IMHO there is a scope for more bug triage work nowadays - very often
devs end up with a list of "blockers" that are either hard to
reproduce or some odd corner cases. It would be great to have more
allowance for bug triagers (even at the expense of cutting budget for
actual bug fixing) to have the bug queue in good shape, with issues
being correctly prioritized, with clear steps how to reproduce and
some testing data.

Regards
Martin
