Re: [sapphire-dev] Bugs Assignment

Kamesh,

 

Thanks for the offer to contribute bug fixes. I find that new contributors achieve best results by working on issues they themselves have encountered in the course of using the framework. That tends to be more motivational. Another approach is to go through the open bugs and see if anything catches your interest. Then comment on the bug that you would be interested in contributing a patch. If that’s ok with the committer in question, you can proceed from there.

 

But… I will certainly help get you started by tagging a few bugs that might be appropriate.

 

Bugs can only be assigned to a committer, but there is also the whiteboard field that allows for arbitrary tagging. Let’s use “kamesh” tag in the whiteboard field to track the bugs that you are looking at. Here is a query:

 

https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/buglist.cgi?status_whiteboard_type=allwordssubstr;query_format=advanced;status_whiteboard=kamesh;bug_status=UNCONFIRMED;bug_status=NEW;bug_status=ASSIGNED;bug_status=REOPENED;product=Sapphire;classification=Technology

I am copying sapphire-dev mailing list so that other community members are in the loop.

 

Thanks,

 

- Konstantin

Hi Konstantin,

 

I would like contribute rather offload some the bug fixes from your shoulder. It will be great if you assign me few bugs which you feel I could handle + it will also make me understand the framework much better and will help my long run of contributions to the framework.

 

Since it’s a personal request for bugs assignment I thought to email you directly. Excuse me if you feel that’s not the right channel.

 

Also one more request is it not possible to assign the bug directly to me ?  do I need to be a committer only then the bugs could be assigned to me ?

 

 

Thank you.

 

Regards,

Kamesh
