Hi All,
This has been in the works for quite awhile, and now we are happy to say the time is here.
ANNOUNCEMENT:
_LibreOffice Triage Contest_
Dates: June 20th, 2013 (0000 UTC) - July 5th, 2013 (2359 UTC)
Details: https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/QA/Projects/Bug_Triage_Contest (note that the wiki is being updated still but most info is there)
Prizes: Top 5 triagers will win a TDF/LibreOffice t-shirt
*Sign Up: In order to sign up you must do one of two things:*
a) add your name to wiki linked above (in the table with names listed)
b) e-mail me directly and say "I'd like to join", giving me your FDO account email address so that judges are able to monitor your work
*you must sign up prior to June 20th as judges will be following your work and we need to know who is participating
*Recommended Next Step
*1. Get familiar with bugzilla: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/
*Get an account if you don't already have one
*Learn how to use the query "search" function
*Look through the list of UNCONFIRMED bugs (approximately 1,200 currently on the list)
2. Read the "how to triage" page
*https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/QA/BugTriage
3. Join us on LibreOffice-QA channel if you want some guidance before the competition
*http://webchat.freenode.net/?channels=libreoffice-qa
Please take the time to get comfortable with these things BEFORE the competition as judges/moderators and QA staff will be quite busy during the period of the contest - the room has people in it usually 20 of the 24 hours of the day so chances are, you'll find someone in there to help out
Warm Regards,
Joel
