Hi All,
Is there a high volume of incoming bugs to the Python tracker? If so, I'd like to help with triaging. I think I have all the necessary access, what I'm missing is the knowledge of how to set myself up to get notifications of new bugs...
How do I do that?
Bug triaging is one of Python's "big needs" and anything you do to help on this score would be much appreciated. Particularly reviewing new and outstanding issues.
Another useful triage I think, is to review the oldest bugs (some of them are > 5 years) and remove the ones that are not relevant anymore, or duplicate with newer entries.
I was actually thinking about that the other day when I saw that the average age of bugs on the Python tracker was at some hideously large 3 digit number. The 'success' statistic would be to bring that down below, say, 100. S
