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*

*seethe* As if we hadn't had enough disability fail today, with all the Feministing stuff.

For 820, would wikifying what you've got so far be a good idea, or posting it in [site community profile] dw_accessibility, and then get others to help out?

1665 looks like one of those ones that grows and grows. It will mean lots more shiny styles, though.

Yeah, reopened bugs are discouraging. It would be good to get it finally sorted, though.

I'd say go for 1016 and 1147, to get the latter ticked off and have something shiny and important to work on in between to encourage you.

Thank you for the cheerleading! I am now to work. Watch me work. Really.

(I have to tell you to give myself accountability, otherwise I will go distract myself with something shiny. Oh, look, glitter pom!)
