Hi Alberto

As a tester:

I spent a day working on ubuntu at the weekend,  and had time to help with this,  but I could not.   This is because when I look at the bug lists,  99% cannot be progressed without serious development skills.   Instead I worked on the autopilot tests for rhythmbox.

By serious development skills I mean the ability to pick up crash dumps and action them.  If there were bugs that could be reproduced with a lesser skills set - I couldn't find them

If there are bug reports that require only high level, or general OS knowledge to progress -  please point me at the list!

Thanks
Adam

When saying Trusty is the most *stable release* I took into
consideration it is in alpha stage, so Trusty is the most stable of all

releases in alpha stage.

On the other hand, the Ubuntu *Bug Week* has been quite unsuccessful. I

thought in the worst scenario, because launching it so soon, whe will
be
at least four people participating; but we just where two. On the other

hand, over a hundred bugs; so it wasn't that bad, *thanks* to Javier
P.L. <https://launchpad.net/%7Echilicuil> for being so supportive.

Because of this, I want to ask people some *questions*; so next time we

do better. Please tell me the following, although the possible answer
doesn't seem relevant; so we can figure out what has being missed in
the
event:

  * *Why* you choose not to participate?
  * *What* will make you to participate in an event like this?

Thank you

As said
<http://www.joelonsoftware.com/articles/fog0000000017.html> by Joel
Spolsky, *good software* usually takes 10 years to become well
made. And this appears the case for Ubuntu 14.04; the most stable
release of all time, as it can be seen in its Error Tracker
<https://errors.ubuntu.com/>.

...
Unfortunately, the error tracker currently shows that Trusty (the
orange line) is the *least* stable version of Ubuntu yet. The most
stable release so far was 13.04 (the purple line).

I guess you misunderstood this because the Y axis on the graph is
unlabelled, which is itself a bug!
<http://launchpad.net/bugs/1237499>
Unfortunately we can't tell whether Trusty is better or worse than
other releases at this point of the release cycle, because data from
before last July is on an old database server and not yet migrated to
the current tracker.

I hope the Bug Weekend was a success. Perhaps for future Bug Days,
you
could give more advance notice that they're happening.

Cheers
