Re: [rt-pmc] Need to address our must-dos for RT projects

[Thomas Watson <tjwatson@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks Scott,

I've been going through the pain myself for the Equinox project. I'm not sure the actual clicking and resolving the bug reports is the issue. I certainly hope that does not take you hours to do! If you are in compliance then simply check off each bug as resolved. To me the issue is the list of things on the Must Do list. This seems to have raised the bar for this release of the train. In particular the capabilities must do has been greatly debated.

For me I think having some form of check list is appropriate so that we at least document what is required to be a part of the train. We currently choose to use bugzilla for that. Do you suggest we use some other mechanism for the check list or simply getting rid of any mandatory check list in order to participate in the train?

Tom

In ECF's case, we simply haven't wanted to spend an hour clicking 
resolve/commit and typing in a comment (as it's already done/we're in 
compliance).  But it is up to date now (thanks zx).

As a project lead, I'd like to register my displeasure to the RT PMC 
with this whole approach to managing the Galileo must-dos.  IMHO, as 
many predicted last fall, it's become more about busy work (feeding 
bugzilla) than about actually improving the result.

Scott
