Work in progress - watch for falling wikicode...

Preparing for Bug Day

Topics

  • Good topics for bug days allow for steady progress when tackled collaboratively.
    • For Bugzilla: Try to focus bug queries such that bug lists are reasonable in length. Mix up the purpose from week to week. (don't just triage bugs every week)
      • Triage Unconfirmed
      • Dupes
      • Verification
      • etc
    • Public input tools: Attempt to map reports to bugs
      • Talkback
      • Reporter
      • Hendrix
      • Forums
  • Suggestions for future topics:
    • ???
    • ???

Schedule

Date Topic

March 27 Map Hendrix items to bugs
April 3 Thunderbird 2 Unconfirmed Bug Triage and Testing
April 10 Firefox 3 Unconfirmed Bug Triage and Testing
April 17 tbd
April 24 tbd

note: don't forget to check the Bug Day Archive page for previously done topics. it's perfectly fine to revisit past topics. The archives page is out of date. I will be working on pulling topics out of the bug day wiki history to accurately complete that archive.

Changes to the wiki

  • Adjust the following items on the Bug Day wiki page as appropriate:
    • Topic of the day
      • Move the old topic, if it's a unique topic, to the Bug Day Archive page
      • Replace the old topic with the new topic
      • Include links to bugzilla queries (tinyurls)
    • Update status report for the last bugday
    • Note who is moderating each session
    • Release being targeted: Update links to the builds to be tested (usually trunk)
  • Update this page with potential topics and schedule them

Promote Bug Days for increased participation

Post announcements to the following areas Thursday and Monday prior to each Tuesday Bugday:

  • Mozilla QA blog
  • MozillaZine Firefox build Forum
  • moz.dev.quality newsgroup
  • Submit a story to MozillaZine (this won't work on short notice)
  • Pass the word around on irc: #qa, #firefox, #developers, etc.
  • Update link to the Bug Day under Hot Events
  • Get prominent ad on QMO for when it goes live.

Misc

  • When appropriate, invite developer(s) to participate
  • Adjust plan for regional interests if necessary

Needs

  • hosts for the Asian and Americas sessions
  • a simple to implement rewards program
