About
The Sugarlabs Bugsquad is the Quality Assurance (QA) team for Sugar. The squad keeps track of current bugs in the sugar software and try to make sure that major bugs do not go unnoticed by developers. You do not need any programming knowledge to be in the Bugsquad; in fact it is a great way to return something to the Sugar community if you cannot program.
The squad is modelled on the gnome bugsquad: http://developer.gnome.org/projects/bugsquad/
