Well - seems feasible but we have to set expectations to a reasonable level. "Close 100 bugs" is pretty crazy for a few developers over the course of a couple days. Our hackfest in US this time:
1. 2 new developers came and got mentored by Michael Meeks - both committed at least a patch or two. 2. Michael worked on a pretty strange bug that took quite a bit of time, he made significant progress but I don't think he fixed it by the end of the weekend. 3. QA side we showed a few new people (or people in different groups within the project) how to triage a bug correctly - helped them set up FDO accounts and went through quite a few unconfirmed bugs. By the end of the weekend we were at our lowest unconfirmed count in 2+ years (under 700) 4. QA side we showed a bit of bibisect work 5. Helped set up someone on Linux so they can slowly get more involved with triaging and bibisecting bugs 6. General discussions about marketing in the US including community outreach, attending events, and having future hackfests 7. Talked to a couple users about our community outreach and how our project works 8. Michael gave a demonstration on how to use the debugger correctly - it was pretty complex so it was good to see it done live by a pro Best, Joel On Tue, Aug 5, 2014 at 1:21 PM, K-J LibreOffice <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi all, > we announce many Hackfests but we never "see" a product of these > Hackfests.
