I propose a team goal that R14 is not released with
any
unresolved Blocker, Critical, or Major bug reports. Possibly
even add 40 to 50% of the Normal reports too. Is this
doable? Agreeable?
+1 - we will sell no wine until it's time....
There is a huge unrecognized benefit in taking a few
extra weeks to clean everything up before a release compared to the
time/manpower
required after release to correct bugs easily squashed before release.
R14
should be as clean as we can make it :)
Curious, I ran some queries in the bugzilla. Here are the number of
unresolved open bug reports in the aforementioned categories:
Blocker: 22 (11 with patches)
Critical: 24 (2 with patches)
Major: 67 (4 with patches)
Normal: 144 (9 with patches)
Total of the above: 257
Total bug reports related to building/compiling: 36
Total open unresolved bug reports, all levels, not tagged as wishes or
enhancement reports: 346
How many of these bug reports remain current and valid remains to be seen.
Enhancement/wish list requests: 116
Proposed R14 release date per wiki: Spring 2012. June 19 is the last day
of spring, which means 104 days. To resolve all Blocker, Critical, Major
and 50% of Normal bug reports means 185 bug reports resolved. That means
1.8 bug reports per day. To resolve all Normal bugs in the same period
means 2.5 bug reports per day. To resolve all unclosed bug reports means
3.3 bug reports per day. Assuming no new bug reports being filed.

Yep, not doable by any means. Blocker reports will be fixed for R14.0,
not sure about the rest...
