Hi all,
In the quest for ever-greater accountability and encouragement to excel,
I've added another interesting statistic to the website: developer bug
fixing stats.
The information page for a developer (like
http://pear.php.net/user/cellog) now contains bug
fixing rank and # of
fixed bugs, average age of all open bugs in packages the developer
maintains, the number of open bugs, and the number of bugs from all bugs
in all packages maintained by the developer that are assigned to that
developer. The bug fixing rank links to the bottom of the bug
statistics page, which is an ordered list of developers ranked by the
number of closed bugs assigned to their handles
The package information page contains simply the ranking, and this
information can be used as another metric to quickly determine whether
the developers maintaining a package are active or not.
Helpful hint: if you know you have fixed bugs and your ranking is quite
low, simply find them in the bug database, and mark the "assigned"
column with your handle.
These statistics do NOT include feature requests, similar to the package
bug statistics, and this won't be changed, as the purpose is to document
fixing of bugs rather than implementors of features.
Greg
