Hi!

Here's a draft of bug day announcement (shamelessly copied most of it from my previous anouncement on 14th of April). Please find bugs in it and signoff. ;-)

[begin] A Bug Day is scheduled on Saturday, 15th of December. The reason for this is to reduce the amount of old reports and feature requests. We will clear outdated reports, fix/implement those that already have patches provided or are trivial to fix/implement, discuss the pros & cons of implementing some feature requests, look at reports assigned to inactive/resigned devs, close/move reports for packages moved to Community/Unsupported.

Join us at #archlinux-bugs channel on irc.freenode.net during 15th of December. As we live in different timezones not all devs will be available at the same time, but feel free to report your issues to any dev available online.

Also please check your mailboxes that may contain notifications about comments made by devs and other users. [end]

The 15th is unfortunately one of those impossible days for me. 3 events to run and so, I won't be free until very early in Sunday morning...

Perhaps we should schedule these a bit more in advance than one day? I'm not looking for a vote on a day that works for all, but scheduling a week in advance allows some of us to know in advance... -Dan

It was in the status report. Maybe I was unclear about it.

Aye, I probably missed it, which is my fault. Sorry about that. On a second note though, not every community member may read the status report, so we are still giving them less than 24 hours notice for this. -Dan

Yeah, but it's not really something where everyone is _needed_. And the bug-squashing superheros (Roman and Allan) fleshed this out a bit already, so I know we're in good hands.

Still, it's nice if people can participate, but no reason to delay things because some members can't be there - I'll try to be there, at least.

My intention was not to bring up this discussion, I was merely stating that none should rely on me being online that day. Generally, I normally never have time on the weekends cos that's when I actually do work. ;) Cheers, -G

One of the reason was that this weekend is the last on this job (ok, I may come here on next weekend too, but that will be not so easy) 'cause I'm starting working on another job since Monday. And last bug day was not very crowded anyway. Though it a bit late I'm adding a newsitem on main site now. -- Roman Kyrylych (Роман Кирилич)
