I've recently started doing bug triage for the Fedora Project. I figured that I would be joining others in doing this - however, found that the state of affairs was pretty sad - there's no defined leadership, no guidelines for participation, etc. Here's a general list of what needs to be improved:
- Defined leader to be established (I volunteer for this task)
- Establish weekly meetings on IRC
- Establish official procedures for becoming a traiger, possibly including a sponsorship system such as other Fedora projects to ensure quality triage, though I do not want to create an excessive barrier to entry.
- Interface with core maintainers of various packages
- Interface with Fedora QA inside of Red Hat
- Interface with Fedora board, various Steering Committees, and other relevant parties.
A separate bugzilla instance for Fedora (I don't think that this is especially workable or desirable)
Incentives for triaging
Breaking triage out into individual development teams/projects
More to come.
