my proposal for some trivial clean-up work (tasks that can "just be
done", but don't provide long-term solutions for our problems):

* triaging/syncing bugs that have been duplicated to garage tracker
(currently underway). triage/sync bugs with internal nokia bug tracker
(pending).
* collecting product specific standard "need more info" questions to
improve the feedback quality of the reports (before developers take a
look)

maybe also possible until early june (beside the general bug triaging):

* come up with a plan to create aliases as default assignees for
components. get rid of "nobody at maemo.org" default assignee. urge
developers to add themselves to the watchlist for products they are/feel
responsible for.
* assign all open bugs to correct default assignees. there's a total of
1227 open bugs, 831 of them assigned to nobody at maemo.org. many reporters
have the impression that nobody cares at all about their reports.
* start nagging developers on urgent issues (depends on the yet to
create "Who's who" list).

i have also added this to
http://garage.maemo.org/plugins/wiki/index.php?April2008Sprint&id=106&type=g

Karsten may come up with additional stuff later today/on monday.

feedback always welcome,

andre
