Thank you for starting this conversation! I look forward to the results of the 
BoF discussion summarised as well.

Dean, all,

There was a lively discussion at the BoF; we’ve tried to take notes at 
https://etherpad.net/p/LLVMBugLifeCycleBoF but probably have failed to capture 
all the points. The slides used to kick start the discussion can be found at 
https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1ERB9IQAjSwaNpEnlbchQzd_V9IQlLOojgo9J0_NXvYA/edit

Both at the BoF and in the mail thread, there have been many suggestions for 
improvements. So many that if we’d want to introduce all of them at once, we’d 
probably get stuck and not introduce any. To try and make progress on the ones 
I myself feel are most useful, I’ve volunteered for 2 actions:

1. Write up a proposal for documentation on what to do during bug 
triaging/closing/etc. I’ve just done so and put it up for review at 
https://reviews.llvm.org/D53691.
2. Write an email to the mailing lists to ask for volunteers for being on the 
“default-cc” list for components, implying you’re willing to triage bugs 
reported against those components. I’ve decided to first try and get consensus 
on what is expected when triaging a bug (see point above) before actively 
searching for volunteers for all components. That being said, both at the dev 
meeting and in the days after, I already received many requests from people to 
be added to the default-cc list for specific components. Of course, I’m very 
happy to add people volunteering to default-cc lists, so if you don’t want to 
wait to get added to a default-cc list, please email 
bugs-ad...@lists.llvm.org<mailto:bugs-ad...@lists.llvm.org> or raise it as a 
ticket in bugs.llvm.org<http://bugs.llvm.org> under “Bugzilla Admin”/“Products”.

Furthermore, since the BoF, I’ve seen a quite a few requests to clean up and 
introduce new components in Bugzilla. We’ve implemented the changes quickly and 
will aim to continue to have a quick response time in the future. Please file a 
ticket in bugs.llvm.org<http://bugs.llvm.org> under “Bugzilla Admin”/“Products” 
if you want to request a specific change.

For most of the other points that were raised: I don’t currently plan on acting 
on them immediately myself and hope to first see an impact of the above actions.

Thanks,

Kristof
