<p>I believe this would help keep the number of bugs in bugzilla at a lower level. |
| 325 |
|
|
This would also be a good chance for some user submitted ebuilds to be commited |
| 326 |
|
|
that would normally go overlooked. I think this is a good idea. We could turn |
| 327 |
|
|
this into a big deal for the user community</p> |

<p>This doesn't require any coding. It just requires one day each month that |

little other than bug closing will happen. I would like to see all developers |
| 333 |
g2boojum |

participate, but I know it's unlikely that we could get everybody free on the |
| 334 |
|
|
same day. The majority of the people that have had an opinion have |
| 335 |
|
|
suggested a weekend day. We will have bugday's on a Saturday. Gentoo |
| 336 |
|
|
developers can try to get some of the users to help them out. A prize to |
| 337 |
|
|
the most succesful developer was suggested. This is an idea to keep in |
| 338 |
|
|
mind for the future. I guess I'm going to be the one coordinating this |
| 339 |
|
|
until I get help, but when I do get help in coordinating this we can |
| 340 |
|
|
coordinate via irc if all parties are capable, or email if not. I will |
