Announcing the Hug-for-a-bug Day
We've been busy, busy, busy for Edgy. And we've got some great new desktop packages in the Eft. However, this means that we've got some great new bugs to look at.
Despite [http://www.osnews.com/permalink.php?comment_id=104201 ignorant opinions] on our concept, we know where our success comes from. That's why we're going to stick to our special Bug Day. We're going to have lists of things to do of different Ubuntu teams, so we can better track the impact we had. Planning is one thing, but we'll surely stick to our concept of success: the Hug Day. This is a very special Bug Day: on Hug Day, when someone closes a bug, then someone else should hug him/her. Why? This is a very special way for us to tell everyone that we love contributions! And triaging bugs is a really big contribution.
In addition to that we added ["UbuntuBugDay/BugsForExtraPoints"] - a page where you can list your most annoying bugs. Fixing these bugs will give extra points and extra hugs of course.
Who can join the Hug Day? Everyone. You don't need to be a developer. You don't need to know to code. Everyone is welcome. If you don't know how to help, then just come and we'll explain you everything.
Where to join the Hug Day? #ubuntu-bugs on freenode [:IRC]. And you can go there every other day too!
When to join the Hug Day? Next Hug day is 19 July 2006, in all timezones. But again, you can go there every day and help with triaging the bug tracking systems.
We can't stress it enough: everyone can help. So join us for the Hug Day!

- This needs many testing especially on current Dapper. Many open bugs are probably fixed in current Dapper, and didn't see an updated test from the original reporter. Also, many are just not easy to reproduce.
- Talk to pitti on IRC.
- Security bugs
Vulnerabilities which already have a CVE number assigned are automatically tracked on [http://people.ubuntu.com/~pitti/ubuntu-cve ubuntu-cve].
If you find an unassigned vulnerability which affects a package in main, assign it to martin.pitt@ubuntu.com.
- If you find a vulnerability without a CVE number, ask pitti about finding one, as these numbers are very important for efficient tracking.
- Screensaver bugs
Confirm and hunt [https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/gnome-screensaver/+bugs gnome-screensaver bugs]
