Time issuess... <ctalbert> mvl: I understand <ctalbert> I guess we'll get started. I hoped a few more of the new folk from the Test Case Day would show up. <ctalbert> The wiki page for the meeting today is at: http://wiki.mozilla.org/Calendar:QA_Chat:2006-08-17#Talking_Points <ctalbert> Anyone want to post the IRC log onto the wiki afterward? <ctalbert> No takers. I'll do it. <ctalbert> We all have more than enough to do. <ctalbert> I wanted to let people know about the progress that was made over the last week about the Community Test Day <ctalbert> Fallen|away and celina|meeting put together a great wiki page for the test day <ctalbert> We've had some interest on the test day from the calendar blog as well, which is good <ctalbert> And we have our writer friend LisaH working on another article about us. <ctalbert> She's actually here today <LisaH> Hello :-) <mvl> an article for what? <LisaH> NewsForge.com <ctalbert> An article for the Community test day. <mvl> ah, cool <ctalbert> She got our Test case writing day on slashdot <ctalbert> dmose mentioned yesterday that we might also write something for the Mozilla Zine. I was hopping to ask some of the folks from the Test Case day if they wanted to help out with that. <mvl> mozillazine has a tendency to be quite late with posting <mvl> an article 3 days after the fact is useless <mvl> so send it in time <ctalbert> Do you know their deadlines? <ctalbert> I'm sure I can find out. <mvl> i don't think the have deadlines <mvl> just whenever somebody feels like posting a bunch of articles <ctalbert> That's cool. -->| Taliesin (Taliesin@ED7B4236.5E385367.8A7D4876.IP) has joined #calendar-qa <ctalbert> Hi Taliesin <Taliesin> hello <ctalbert> Today's agenda is: http://wiki.mozilla.org/Calendar:QA_Chat:2006-08-17#Talking_Points <ctalbert> We were just discussing trying to post a small article to Mozilla Zine about the Community Test Day <Taliesin> I'm actually almost in time <Taliesin> ok <ctalbert> LisaH, before I leave the subject of the Test Day, do you have any questions for folks? <ctalbert> (It's a unique opportunity to have everyone together) <LisaH> Not at the moment. I"m writing the story now and hope it will be up either late today or early tomorrow. <ctalbert> Awesome. <ctalbert> We have about 40 uncomfirmed bugs filed over the past month and we need to get to confirming those. <ctalbert> https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/buglist.cgi?query_format=advanced&short_desc_type =allwordssubstr&short_desc=&product=Calendar&long_desc_type=substring&long_desc =&bug_file_loc_type=allwordssubstr&bug_file_loc=&status_whiteboard_type= allwordssubstr&status_whiteboard=&keywords_type=allwords&keywords=&bug_status= UNCONFIRMED&bug_status=NEW&resolution=---&emailassigned_to1=1&emailtype1=exact &email1=&emailassigned_to2=1&emailreporter2=1&emailqa_contact2=1&emailtype2= exact&email2=&bugidtype=include&bug_id=&votes=&chfieldfrom=1m&chfieldto= Now&chfield=%5BBug+creation%5D&chfieldvalue=&cmdtype=doit&order=Last+Changed& field0-0-0=noop&type0-0-0=noop&value0-0-0= <ctalbert> Wow, that's quite a URL <jminta> tinyurl is bugzilla's friend * dmose chuckles <mvl> ctalbert: shorten-bug-query bookmarklet is also a friend <ctalbert> http://tinyurl.com/mlgdr <ctalbert> I am hoping to get a group of folks together to go through and confirm those over the next couple of days, any one interested in helping out with that? <ctalbert> Next couple of days meaning: today and tomorrow <Taliesin> I can do some <Taliesin> but I'm a bit busy workwise <ctalbert> Whatever you can do will be awesome. We're all really busy at the moment. <ctalbert> I'm going to ask celina|meeting when she returns as well <ctalbert> And finally, I wanted to let everyone know about the new 0.3 Release Schedule <Taliesin> shall we assign numbers? <ctalbert> Taliesin: good idea <Taliesin> just to avoid overlap <ctalbert> I'm trying to see if there is a good swath <ctalbert> Why don't you take from 345658 and lower <ctalbert> Why don't you take from 345658 and lower <ctalbert> woops <ctalbert> That's about ten or so <Taliesin> ok <ctalbert> I'll take the next ten, and we'll get celina|meeting to do the last ten <ctalbert> about half of these look to already be confirmed * ctalbert notes to get better bug queries next time <Taliesin> I have the list already if you want <ctalbert> Sure. <ctalbert> The new release schedule is as follows: <ctalbert> Aug 22 Test Day <ctalbert> Aug 25 Deadline for landing all high risk patches <ctalbert> Sept 2.
