[ubuntu-us-mi] Bug Jam - Summer 2008

[Greg Grossmeier]

I am pleased to announce that the Michigan LoCo Team is holding a Bug
Jam on June 9th at 6:30 pm.


What is a Bug Jam?
Every day people report bugs about Ubuntu in the bug tracker Launchpad
[0] but the number of bugs reported is more than the current bug
triagers can effectively handle. In short, the Ubuntu community needs
more bug triagers. But how do you triage bugs? Bug Jams are events
where people who are interested in learning how to triage bugs get
together to learn how to do this and answer everyone's questions. It is
a fun learning event.

Also, it is a great way to get started doing your 5-a-day and add your
name to this list and increase our team's ranking:

When and where is our Bug Jam?
It is Monday June 9th at 6:30pm at the Main branch of the Clinton-Macomb
Public Library [1]. We will be in a conference room with free wifi to
library card holders. People without local library cards can sign up
for one in 5 minutes, but if you are planning on doing that, please try
to show up a little bit early. Directions can be found here:

What should I do before the Bug Jam?
Check out some of the bug triaging resources online right now like:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HelpingWithBugs and
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/HowToTriage

There is a wealth of information linked to from this page:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BugSquad/KnowledgeBase


What do you do after the Bug Jam?
There are plenty of restaurant/bar options in the area to celebrate a
jam well done and eat dinner.


Feel free to email the mailing list for coordinating rides and asking
questions before hand.

Best!

Greg

I won't be able to make it for this Bug Jam as I'll be out of town.
When will be the next one?

Unfortunately we don't have a set schedule of these things because we
base them off of interest. So, if this one is a big hit, and we want
more opportunities to get together for bug triaging, then the next one
will be soon!

Best,

Possibly (but in no way set in stone) the week of July 7th in/near
Grand Rapids (depending on whether or not I will be in that area). I
definitely want to include the West-coasters ;-)
