Following the example of our friends from NetBSD. We organized this week-end what they called a Bugathon. Basically, people gather on an IRC channel and discuss about some Problem Reports they either sent or are interested in. This is a great opportunity to get things done faster and get in touch with committers. The Bugathon was only announced on -ports because we weren't sure to get enough src committers, mainly because of the very short notice (it was decided on friday evening CET). Anyway, the result of the Test-Bugathon is that around 140 PRs have been closed (kern:8, bin:2, ports:~100, i386:1, docs:7, www:4, usb:14, conf:4, amd64:1). I'd like to thank all the committers and participants who came, it was a lot of fun. The test has proven its point so we'll definitely make new bugathons in the near future. We haven't settled on a date yet, but an announcement will be made once the date will be decided, at least two weeks before the event. In the meantime, don't hesitate to come to the IRC channel #freebsd-bugbusters on EFNET or subscribe to the freebsd-bugbusters mailing list. Have fun fixing bugs! -- Florent Thoumie flz_at_FreeBSD.org FreeBSD Committer
