I think all the people wanting to help with Firefox would find your points interesting and I believe some of it like getting the inter personal skills right and trying to figure out the rules of the game.. how things work.. is not easy for many newbies, even the testers trying to help the developers and not get in way. I know i tend to challenge and analyze bugs and cross bugs together, because I see the bigger issues of just trying to solve 1 bug separate from another results in various implementations of similar code for different tasks. If they were more informed about the implications of other bugs, we would save lots of developer time. But since we don't have time to be having to look around or find all the offline discussions about bugs, trying to be informed makes bugzilla almost like a forum for some, it becomes a way to communicate, and becomes single minded. If more bugs were tracked on a broader base (meta), we find many having similar underlining issues.. but its one bug here, one bug there..<br />Object Orientated programming is an important part of software development, and not doing so, all to often causes regressions all over the place with people having to clean up over and over again.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
