Assigned-bugs hackathon!

I checked tonight, and we've got 571 open bugs. That's a lot! 146 of them are assigned with no patch, and if we could make some inroads on that number, we'd be able to knock down the total open number a hell of a lot.

So, here's my hackathon challenge! If you've got assigned bugs, let's do whatever we can this week to get that number down. I'll start; I have 8 bugs assigned to me without a patch, and while some of them are waiting on other things to get resolved first, some of them are things I've just been putting off because I don't know exactly how to do them or was running into problems.

I've already yelled for help on what I'm stuck on, so I'll turn to y'all: what can I help you with on stuff you're stuck on? And if not me, who else can help you? A bunch of the existing assigned stuff is really complex, so let's all work together and see how much we can improve things.

Ideally, I'd like to get that "open" number down below 500 by Sunday night, and double ideally, the "all unassigned" number (currently at 386) down under 300.

*salutes you all*

Hmmm, yes, that sounds like it would make more sense. No JS is alwas good and as far as I can see, the comment spellchecking is also easier?

Yeah, it's not as persnickety as a JS implementation would be, I think. Also likely to work for more browsers *g*

Hmmm, turning out to be not that easy :/ There's LJ::Talk->make_preview , but it needs a talkurl.

I am wondering whether what faqedit does might be a good idea.

Oh! I didn't mean use comment preview, exactly. More, do what comment preview does. (It likely wouldn't work, anyway, since the suggestions does some formatting and, also doesn't allow HTML, so you'd need to emulate that exactly).

Heh, I think I was thinking way too complicated. I have now already coded a preview to appear at the top when pushing a preview button. I think I am going to get this done today. Won't be as pretty as entry-preview, but we also don't need that for suggestions.

Right??? :)

Or maybe what faqedit does -- if that gives you an idea, go for it. (disclaimer, I haven't looked at faqedit in great detail *g*)
