Re: Quick roundup of bug day activity (July 13th/14th)

Hi, Great round up, thanks Daniel. I want to say to Jan, thanks a lot :-) He has been really involved in the testing process and helping us understand things - and apparently we either got him so motivated or so annoyed that he's been working hard on improving things and writing new tests and fixing code and the reports have gone done by 50% since last week. Thanks again! :-) Also I'd like to see more people involved, seriously - Is there anything we can do so any of you guys are willing to join in or are the weekends just too much of a pain to chip in time, especially in the summer with all the good weather ? ;-) Regards Helgi On Wed, Jul 16, 2008 at 12:29 AM, Daniel O'Connor <daniel.oconnor@gmail.com> wrote: > A quick summary of the who and what were involved with PEAR bug day on July > 13th / 14th. > > The main focus of this bug day just past was open SOAP > > bugs<http://pear.php.net/bugs/search.php?cmd=display&package_name%5B%5D=SOAP&status=OpenFeedback&bug_type=Bugs> > . > > SOAP has obviously a fairly large user base, and little problems have led to > a massive flood of bug reports! > > Involved were: > Jan <http://pear.php.net/user/yunosh> (SOAP lead), > Chuck<http://pear.php.net/user/ashnazg>, > Helgi <http://pear.php.net/user/dufuz>, and even myself > for a few scant > hours. > > While we didn't get to close many tickets, the wheels are certainly turning > towards bringing SOAP back into the fold.
