Merge Requests that need attention, 2nd October

Recent merge requests in need of attention

This list shows 10 merge requests which were opened a week or more ago but have not yet received feedback.

Again, this list is limited to first-time contributions. Given that we are going back a month already, I am going to look at including non-first time contributions in next week’s batch.

The File-Roller one I looked at. It’s a bit odd that aside from adding a content rating, it also includes only 1 release. It seems a bit weird; either add every release and a script to ensure it is kept up to date, or just stick to the content rating.

Super grateful to see this kind of tracking out there. Might be nice to put an auto label or something that we can generate this automatically and post it on discourse. (Assuming you haven’t done this already)

My eventual plan is to publish this as a webapp so it’s easy to copy+paste into discourse, but also easy to consult any other time. From there, autoposting would be simple as well – and an ‘auto’ tag seems a good way to distinguish automated posts from normal ones.

A post was merged into an existing topic: Next Tracker project meeting is 3rd Oct at 15.00 UTC

Sorry that last message was meant for your tracker meeting - wrong thread.

Sounds great! Autoposting will definitely help but we will need to get developers to subscribe to it so that it will be effective. Maybe make it part of maintainer onboarding tasks?

We can move posts and replies in Discourse. :wink:

The Maintainer corner has various documentation: https://wiki.gnome.org/MaintainersCorner
