  • base work flow on http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Trac_ticket_workflow
  • distribution field (where was the bug found)

• Meetings: when/if
  • schedule weekly triage meetings (especially to get people started, but things should be setup so that triaging happens async, because it needs to be a continuous)
  • at #sugar-meeting

• Sprints: when/if
  • after releases
  • at #sugar-meeting

• Do we need a dedicated mailing list?
  • No, we mostly have announcements and use tags for cases like: "I was triaging bug #567 but didn't know what to do?"
  • sugar-devel - [bugsquad] and [bugsquad][announce]
  • wiki note: "you can always triage at any time, and if you'd like to schedule your own sugar triage sprint, please do and announce it $here! if you're new and want help getting started but can't make a sprint, ask $here_2."
  • irc questions at #sugar

• Create a list of concrete tasks we expect the BugSquad to do regularly
  • solicit distributions for testing of new releases
  • maintain the BugSquad wiki pages (especially with policies like "we use #sugar for discussion, tag your sugar-devel posts this way")
  • add components, tags, milestones
  • triage tickets
  • provide feedback on how to improve bug advocacy on a ticket, when requested. ("How could I have written this bug report better / which developers should I ping on it"?)

• Triage Policy:
  • Who is responsible for setting priorities and milestones?
    • the bug gets in
    • bug squad make the bug nice (a well-written bug report, a suggestion on the next step to push it to developers for fixing - who to talk to, etc.), assign to maintainer
    • maintainer assign a milestone
    • the dev does fix it
