Incoming reports in the last weeks
As I’m quite busy with the normal “Triaging and Syncing” business already (as seen above, a first increase of bug reports happened right after Maemo Summit in week 41, but I expect way busier times ahead) Karsten concentrates on technical stuff. It’s good to have him back as now stuff [...]
After spending three holidays in Amsterdam (rainy but still a wonderful time) we moved from our hotel to the Openismus apartment on the evening before the summit started. Great to see the friends/colleagues again, plus only 5 minutes of walking to the venue.
As my laptop had died directly after arriving in Amsterdam this was a [...]
It’s the beginning of October and one year ago I started working fulltime as maemo.org Bugmaster (after I had started together with Karsten in May 2008).Where are we and what are the plans?

The Nokia N900 is more targeted to the mass market than any of the Nokia Internet Tablets before. This means that Maemo will see new users, with different levels of knowledge, and involvement.Some will just use their device and will not be interested in contact with other users.Some will ask questions on mailing lists or [...]
As Maemo 5 (Fremantle) gets closer I’m worried about

How up to date are the bug reports?
There's currently only 5 open non-moreinfo Apps/Platform tickets left with version field set to a version earlier than 4.0.
That's quite cool because it means that there's nearly no non-updated bugs left about Bora or earlier - stuff that's not being worked on anymore ...
Explaining how to Vote for a bug report, as I've read a few complaints in ITt and in private mail.Voting is helpful to identify the main issues that the Internet Tablet users and maemo.org community members have.
Log in to maemo.org Bugzilla and go to your favourite enhancement request or bug ...
Every component in Bugzilla has a default QA contact (a virtual email address with the suffix @maemo.bugs, not completely implemented for Website bugs though, but finished for software bugs). To find the corresponding address for a component, go to the overview page, click on a product, and get the list ...
I've spent this Saturday on reorganizing the structure in Maemo Bugzilla (this was planned for several weeks). From my point of view, it will make it much easier to add future components/products without cluttering too much. For interested Nokia developers, it should be easier to track bugs (by e.g. adding ...
