Emdebian Help Wanted
There are a lot of tasks needed within Emdebian, covering a wide range of areas. To
support new and existing users, the ToDo list has been migrated to
the Debian Bug Tracking System
and the
buildd.emdebian.org pseudo-package.
Anyone can file bugs against the buildd.emdebian.org pseudo-package without
needing user tags. In time, user categories will help sort the bug list.
In the meantime, this page highlights selected bug reports for general
tasks that are not yet allocated (owned in the BTS).
All messages sent to the bug reports will be sent on to the mailing list.
When you start working on a bug/ToDo item, set yourself as owner
of the bug report by
sending an email to control@bugs.debian.org
or use bts owner <bugnumber> ! or
bts claim <bugnumber>. Note that
the "owner" of a bug does not automatically receive all of the
email corresponding to it; use "subscribe" to achieve that. See
bts (1) for more information.
