I just triaged all the open bugs, and have a few notes.
== Milestones ==
Please attach a milestone to any new bugs you file, so our Roadmap page
is meaningful:
http://dev.laptop.org/roadmap
== Pasting conversations ==
If you're pasting conversations from the mailing list into a bug, please
do it as in the following example from bug 60
(http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/60):
'''David Woodhouse:''' Do we also have some attempt at a resume-from-RAM
path?
'''Jim Gettys:''' Not yet; Mitch will work on this right after Cafe'
bringup.
The triple quotes are bold, and aligning the text as above makes the
bugs look nice.
== Code snippets ==
When you need to paste code snippets or verbatim output from some
command, or for debugging, use this syntax:
{{{
code snippet or output
}}}
That will preserve full formatting.
== Referring to other bugs ==
To link to another bug, e.g. bug 1, use simply: #1
This works in comments and bug descriptions, and will get auto-linkified
to the bug in question. When that bug gets fixed, the previous link will
automatically have strike-through text on it.
