FWIW if there are a lot of the items completed perhaps there is a bulk
edit operation that can be done to mark them all as done.
Personally I like the bugzilla approach. We are all used to bugzilla.
you can query to find outstanding ones and pretty easily track issues
related to the must dos
Unfortunately, I am also in favor of raising the bar. What seems like
pedantic trivialities to us can be major issues for consumers. Just
the other day I went to consume a few different project outputs and
after >1 hour of me and another experienced committer sitting side
by side we were not able to figure out how to get what was needed (or
indeed what was actually needed). Consistency is next to consumability
:-)
Having said that, we all feel the pain. Please bear with it and help
produce a quality Galileo release that people can easily use.

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?

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
