Team Purpose

A team of UbuntuDevelopers has agreed on doing periodical reviews of code. To accelerate SponsorshipProcess members of the team will check

If you are a member of the UbuntuDevelopers, it's highly appreciated if you join the team and help out:

Workflow

Members of the team

  • have either to be in ~ubuntu-core-dev (for main/restricted) or ~ubuntu-dev (for universe/multiverse) to be able to upload reviewed patches. Still efforts of interested new contributors in reviewing patches are appreciated,

  • will triage bugs (in the bug lists mentioned above) weekly,
  • pick bugs they're interested (based on their area of expertise and preference),
  • assign bugs where a review might take longer to themselves to avoid duplication of work.

If the patch was deemed not to be good enough yet, the bug will be re-assigned to the patch author and set to In Progress. The preferred way of closing bugs is ClosingBugsFromChangelog.

The administrators of the team will

  • review the list of bugs weekly,

  • assign long standing bugs (>= 2 weeks) to team members who might be up to the job.

Possible conflicts and problems will be discussed in the last minutes of the weekly Distro Team meeting.

Review

As a reviewer you should make sure the following rules are observed:

  • adhere to StableReleaseUpdates, FreezeExceptionProcess, SyncRequestProcess, Merge policy,

  • patches should apply, the resulting package should build and work correctly, built packages should install cleanly,
  • don't hesitate to let the patch go through several review iterations, if you're unsure or unhappy about it.
  • sync requests don't needs sponsoring or uploads; if you're sufficiently happy with the sync request of a non team member, simply
    • mark it as confirmed,

    • add your ACK in a comment,

    • unsubscribe the sponsors team,

    • subscribe ubuntu-archive to the bug.

  • keep the name of the patch author in debian/changelog and use -k<keyid> to sign the package with your key.

  • make sure to ask the patch author to submit the patch to Debian and/or Upstream.

http://daniel.holba.ch/sponsoring/ has an overview of the bugs in those lists with assignees.
