I've already started seeing some successes in closing some security bugs. I'd like to try to prioritize our efforts a bit. On the Security Team wiki page I provided links to security bugs based on their urgency (Critical -> Important -> Moderate -> Low). We should also prioritize our efforts within those categories as oldest to newest. I'm hoping that the older vulnerabilities have already been closed and the tickets just left open. If not we should definitely get them fixed.
By the way, the links on the wiki look at all vulnerabilities in Fedora and EPEL (bugs tagged with Keywords: SecurityTracking). I think I'll modify the query to not show bugs that already have an fst_owner so people only see what's not taken. Thoughts?

+1 for showing bugs with no fst_owner.

The only problem I see with this is that what happens if for some reason the fst_owner drops out and is no longer maintaining the ticket?
Oh, and Hi all, just volunteered up yesterday. Will take some time this weekend to catchup on everything and get into the work flow. I currently work as a systems engineer at a firm specializing in computer and network security solutions. Looking forward to helping out.
Cheers, David

I was thinking of the wiki query links as "quick looks" for those checking to see how many tickets are not taken by a security team member or a security team member looking for tickets to take. If the intent of the links is something else then clearly I am off the mark lol.
The question of fst_owner assigned but orphaned is a good one. Being very new to this I don't know if we have a process in place yet for querying "stale" tickets that have a fst_owner but haven't been updated in x day or such.

It's probably good idea to have separate queries for all and unowned issues. Would it make sense to have additional separate queries for Fedora and Fedora EPEL? I assume some folks will be more / only interested in working on one of the two.
