To realy know if more people are helping out, it would be nice to see some pre- and post-openSUSE bugzilla numbers.
Quoting AJ's mail in opensuse-announce ("schedule update") from thursday:
Thank you all for your support for SUSE Linux 10.1, with this version we received for the first time more feedback from the community than from engineers inside Novell
I'd say this is quite impressing ;-)
It definitely is!
AJ: Can you please add some more statistics?
I'll try to anser this question with some rough numbers & rates. Once 10.1 is out, we will hopefully have the time to dig into bugzilla and come up with some real numbers.
- what percentage of bug reports came from the community for 10.0?
IIRC we had some 1/3 communtiy to 2/3 Novell / SUSE repored bugs for 10.0. This has changed for 10.1, where we approximately have the same numbers in reverse.
- what percentage of bug reports for 10.1 came from the "old" [1] beta testers? (I don't want to split the community into "old" and "new" - I'm just interested in the numbers ;-)
The 1/3 of community reported bugs was distributed into 1/3 "new" and 2/3 "old", if I rember correctly -- but I'd have to go and check those numbers again.
Hints how I can query this on myself are also welcome - especially, I could not find a search option for "reporter is member of group XY" :-(
It's not that easy to gather those numbers from bugzilla -- what I did some month ago was downloading csv formated exports from bugzilla queries with a lot of different collums turned on and then parsing those with a spcial script. Regards Christoph
