    * Bug:448470 Portmap does not start if a random user has a process named portmap '''done, maintainer upload to unstable'''

Rationale

Around 100 RC bugs is 100 RC bugs that should go away NOW.

So the idea is:

  • 100 developers × 5 days = 100 RC bugs fixed

[http://bts.turmzimmer.net/details.php?bydist=both&sortby=packages&ignmerged=on&new=7&refresh=1800 Detailed list of bugs]

Rules

  • Write your name in the list before the game start.
  • When the game starts, you are assigned a RC bug. Assignment is made using a very complicated method used by the Chinese secret services called the [http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipédia:Pastiches/Pifomètre pifomètre].

  • You have 5 days to close the RC bug. Possible outcomes are:
    • You upload a NMU that fixes the bug to unstable.
    • You send a patch to the bug and the maintainer does an upload.
    • You convince, with a mail that details the rationale, a release manager to tag the bug lenny-ignore.
    • You convince, in a similar way, a release manager to remove the package from lenny.
    • You downgrade, with appropriate rationale, the bug to a non-RC severity.
  • If, during this timeline, you manage to fix a RC bug that is more than 3 months old by providing a patch, you will be called a WINNER.
  • The 5 first WINNERs will be sent a box of home-made cookies by ?JossMouette. (Other proposals to motivate people to become WINNERs are welcome.)

  • If you don’t manage to close the RC bug in 5 days, you have to bake cookies and send them to someone who has managed to close one or to a release manager.

Timeline

  • Game started: 25 Oct

  • Game ends: 30 Oct
