BugDay/200906
General
Topic
The TYPO3 BugDay in June 2009 mainly addresses reviewing of features for TYPO3 4.3. The feature freeze for TYPO3 4.3 will be defined with the first beta release in a few days. After that no more new features will enter the TYPO3 Core to be released with TYPO3 4.3.0 - there are exceptions for important projects (e.g. like security enhancements). So, hurry to get important features reviewed and integrated into TYPO3 4.3!
Host
AOE media in Wiesbaden, Germany is hosting the event. If you're close to that location, you can join the BugDay physically and get in touch with some TYPO3 Core Developers.
How does it work
- list pending bugs/features in the bugtracker
- look to the bug reports and pick an issue that sounds interesting to you
- Important: post the bug ID in IRC before you start working on it, so that nobody doues double work (the lists below show who is currently working on a specific issue)
- check if the bug/feature report still applies to current TYPO3 versions (Trunk/4.3 and 4.2)
- now the reviewing and testing process starts - so, search for the bug/feature ID in the TYPO3 Core List
- apply the provided patch file to your local TYPO3 installation and test if the patch solves the issue
- additionally you can also review the code and make sure if it's clean and understandable or has several programming flaws
- finally post your vote (+1 if everything was fine or -1 if something was wrong with an accordant description) to the TYPO3 Core List
This way we can track who did what - maybe there may be some prizes at some day for the most active Bug Day helpers.
