[Fedora-mentors-list] Anybody interested in triaging?

[Rahul Sundaram]

Hi

We announced the mentors effort. A few people showed up and asked what 
do you us want us to do. The predictable reply was that they can go 
ahead and work on whatever they are interested in and the mentors would 
try and help them get involved with it in a better way. Obviously there 
hasnt been much more discussions after that.

So here is a alternative approach. I am going to try and post things 
regularly here for which I believe Fedora could use more contributors or 
which could be fun or even a combination of both!

So people who are lurking in this list, dont wait anymore. Speak up and 
tell us what you wanted to get involved with. Here are the different 
ways in which you could be potentially contribute but this is by no 
means comprehensive.

Here are more details about the mentors project itself.

Bug triaging is something many people can get involved with in a 
relatively easy way and has a disproportionately high impact relative to 
the amount of work you do because it buys more time for the developers 
to do what they do best  (ie) developing the code, adding enhancements 
and fixing issues instead of dealing with  incomplete or duplicate or 
invalid bug reports among several other problems associated with making 
up a good bug report or enhancement request.

If you are a wee bit curious and interested, take a look at

Let me know your thoughts
