Re: Low Averge Bug Counts

[Grant Bowman <grantbow@svpal.org>]

Christian Kurz and I came up with some other factors that are measurable
and may need to be taken into account to increase the validity of the
data.  Just the average open unarchived bugs isn't very accurate though
I feel it's a good start.

  * severity (critical, grave, serious, important, normal, minor,
    wishlist, fixed) of bug reports 
  * status (open, forwarded, pending, fixed, done) of bug reports
  * age of bug
  * responsiveness of user (scan log for From: & Date: and compute)
  * responsiveness of maintainer (scan log and compute)

In project management there are formulas for prioritization and
scheduling that may be applicable.  I can pull out the information I
have.

Cheers,
