Re: Tracking RFSs as bugs

Hello everyone,
as I see this discussion going on, I think I should inform you about
some things going on on mentors.d.n right now:
* Asheesh and we are steadily improving features on Debexpo (the
software behind mentors.d.n). Its not finished yet, and misses some
features we would like to add.
* I was thinking to implement a debian-mentors <-> Debexpo bridge to
import comments made on the mailing list to Expo. There are some stub
functions available, if you are interested have a look to our devel
branch [1]. This is something to come in future. Basically I will grab
RFS comments made on the mailing list, and import them to the package
history on Debexpo. More advanced plans include to keep track of the
entire package history. If someone else is willing to assist me here:
any help is appreciated. That would not change the workflow for MUA fans
out there.
* As a result on the dc11 sponsorship BoF, I think, one of the most
useful additions to Expo would be sponsor metrics [2]. I prepared a
newsletter together with David Bremner which is in the pipeline and we
will probably send it out very soon, as I get my stuff on Expo regarding
that done.
* Lucas Nussbaum made a very interesting proposal to make a social
peer-to-peer review platform out of Debexpo. Basically his idea was to
have some karma / teams. Have a look to [3][4] get the idea.
* Debexpo did not lose packages being uploaded to the old Mentors
infrastructure before we switched. For technical reasons we don't have
the precise upload date and/or package description available. So I gave
those uploads a random legacy upload date. Besides they are fully
functional.
* We need more contributors to Debexpo. We have a lot of (wishlist)
bugs. Let me hear if anyone is interested to step in.

The fact, you won't find sponsors easily which makes it pretty hard to
find someone who advocates you. Here is more to come on the newsletter I
announced above.
