A list of all changed reports in the past 3 days, sorry it includes a lot of spam stuff, I changed a lot of bogus ones to spam so the system would delete it when next spam removal cronjob runs http://pear.php.net/bugs/search.php?search_for=&boolean=0&limit=90&order_by=&direction=ASC&cmd=display&status=All&bug_type=All&php_os=&packagever=&phpver=&assign=&maintain=&author_email=&bug_age=0&bug_updated=3 All closed ones http://pear.php.net/bugs/search.php?search_for=&boolean=0&limit=90&order_by=&direction=ASC&cmd=display&status=Closed&bug_type=All&php_os=&packagever=&phpver=&assign=&maintain=&author_email=&bug_age=0&bug_updated=3 This all includes feature requests too Regarding those pros and cons, we didn't announce it to the world for the reason that we wanted to do a test run and see how things would go instead of having end users and no one knows what is happening :-) Additionally a lot of foobar reports got moved into feedback mode, marked as duplicate or bogus, and many of those Daniel Connor handled and cleaned up the system nicely. We could have been tons more productive but since we were taking our first steps in the triaging circuit as a PEAR team + we weren't all that many, taking that into account then we did a very good job and a lot of low hanging fruits got picked and hopefully future events will be as successful. We are about to hit 2 important milestones, much thanks to this triage ... Closing bug reports with id 1000 and lower and 2000 and lower ... 1000 and lower had 1 bug left and 2000 and lower had around 5 I think, this is important to me since those are 2 big numbers ... Soon we can focus on 3000 and lower ;-) Anyway hope to see ya people in future events - Helgi P.S. Can someone take this miss mass of Daniel and mine and make a well thought out blog post on the pear blog ? Regards Helgi
