I'll be traveling but depending on the time I may be able to make this, and I'll plan on participating in future ones.

Hi all,
To follow in the footsteps of the inimitable Infra team, we want to start monthly bug triaging days. Thursdays seem to be good days for our Aussie counterparts and follow the milestone pattern. So I'd like to propose our first for Nov 20.

The idea is not to fix bugs, but triage them for many people to pick up easily, even as a first contribution. In the comments, let people know which file needs updated and even suggest wording.

To triage a doc bug in openstack-manuals[1] or openstack-api-site [2], follow the docs in our HowTo page [3].

Here are some definitions for Status and Importance so you can triage incoming doc bugs.

Status:

New - Recently logged by a non-triaging person
Incomplete - Needs additional information before it can be triaged
Opinion - (not sure what to do with this one)
Invalid - Not an issue for docs
Won't Fix - Doc fixes won't fix the issue
Confirmed - Acknowledged that it's a doc bug
Triaged - Comments in the bug indicate its scope and amount of work to be done
In Progress - Someone is working on it
Fix Committed - A fix is in the repository; Gerrit sets this automatically. Don't set this manually.
Fix Released - A fix is published to the site.

Importance:

Critical - data will be lost if this bug stays in; or it's so bad that we're better off fixing it than dealing with all the incoming questions about it. Also items on the website itself that prevent access are Critical doc bugs.
High - Definitely need docs about this or a fix to current docs; docs are incomplete without this. Work on these first if possible.
Medium - Need docs about this within a six-month release timeframe.
Low - Docs are fine without this but could be enhanced by fixing this bug.
Wishlist - Would like this doc task done "some day" Would prefer to use this for "tasks" instead of "bugs" - mark a bug as low rather than putting it on the wishlist. When something is wrong with the doc, mark it as Low rather than Wishlist.
Undecided - Recently logged by a non-triaging person or requires more research before deciding its importance.

Let's set a targeted number of triaged bugs at 30 as our goal. (Up to 60 would be amazing.)

I'll mark the day on the OpenStack calendar once we agree Thursday is good.
Thanks,
Anne
