Since the previous update, another 30 patches have been committed to the master branch.
This was the week of the first feedback fest in the 3.0 release cycle. A total of 57 bugs were identified last week as having an active pull request but no signoff; an additional bug was add to the wiki page today. Of those 58 bugs, 43 received substantive feedback, and 17 of them had their patches merged.
I would like to acknowledge the following people who left feedback for fest bugs:
- Galen Charlton
- Jeff Davis
- Bill Erickson
- Jason Etheridge
- Rogan Hamby
- Kathy Lussier
- Mike Rylander
- Ben Shum
- Jason Stephenson
- Dan Wells
A special shout-out also goes to Andrea Neiman, who helped keep the fest’s wiki page up to date this week.
There was also a fair amount of activity outside of the feedback fest, including a number of bug reports filed by folks testing the web staff client.
