[Bugsquad] BugDays for Kmail on 18/19 and 25/26 August - please join the fun!

[Myriam Schweingruber]

Hi everyone,

We are organizing a BugDay on 2 consecutive weekends to find the
kmail1 bugs reproducible in kmail2, so we can close the kmail1
remaining bugs as unmaintained.

You can find all the necessary information in my bog:
http://blogs.fsfe.org/myriam/2012/08/08/triagers-and-testers-needed/
but here is a summary:

What needs to be done?

* We need to get rid of open duplicate reports.
* We will check if a bug is reproducible in Kmail 2 and reassign it there.
* We will close the Kmail1-only reports as unmaintained.
* We also need to clean up and remove duplicates form the Kmail2 bugs list.

To make sure we can work reasonably well, this is the setup you should
have to help with the testing:

* KDE SC 4.8.4 with Kmail 4.8.4 at least, but 4.9 would be better and
if you can run from Git it would be even more helpful.
* Either a POP3 or an IMAP setup, to make sure we can test both extensively.

I will be around most of the time (in my UTC+2 timezone at least) and
will try to give a hand in #kde-bugs on irc.freenode.net

So let’s meet on Saturday, August 18th on #kde-bugs and get this
sorted as much as possible.

Of course, you can start earlier: you will find two saved searches in
http://bugs.kde.org called “Kmail1 open bugs” and “Kmail2 open bugs”.
Just add these to your footer, so you can easily access the list
whenever you feel a triaging itch.
(if you can't see saved searches then you do not yet have enough
rights in b.k.o, please talk to me about that so we can fix that).

If this is your first triaging experience, don’t be shy, just ping me
in #kde-bugs – type: “Mamarok: ping” – and I will try to give you the
necessary help ASAP

And finally: if you want to be kept updated about the Bugsprints we
organize, you can subscribe to this Calendar:

See you on Saturday!

Regards, Myriam
