Title: News: The hunt is on!
Post by: bongowongo on June 14, 2011, 12:59:39 am
Dear Linuxmce community,

The hunt is on, the hunt for the last bugs. Come and join the hunting party.
Take a look at this list (http://svn.linuxmce.org/trac.cgi/report/9) from svn and try to confirm, add and/or solve these bugs keeping 0810 from releasing.
All levels of users can participate, try to reproduce the bugs to see if they are still there and report any findings, even confirmation that the bug still exists is useful. Also new bugs should be added, but check the list first though.

Why this hunt?

We (and you) want to release 0810.

So it has been decided,

no new features will be added to Linuxmce before 0810 is released, or Ubuntu 1110 has been released.

Whichever comes first.

Does that mean that new features will not be developed? Well in an open source project you can never tame the talents, and everybody is free to spent their free time how they like. We still encourage people to play with code and learn. Here is a nice example of golgoj4, picking it up nicely. We need more of the golgo's, we want to see at least a golgoj14 at the end of this month.

Golgoj4's exploring micro browser

and Golgoj4's frustrations

Why do I focus just on this one guy? Aren't there more dev's?
Yes and they are very much appreciated, and I will put more people in the spotlights later on, but I wanted to show his development as a dev, also he documents his progress nicely.
Be sure to look at his youtube video's
