Re: [egit-dev] 2.4 project plan

[Tomasz Zarna <tzarna@xxxxxxxxx>]

A thousand bugs still feel like an overkill to me, even for a bunch of
committers with good intentions.

How about making it a Google Summer of Code project? Doesn't sound
like an exciting job, but would be extremely useful for the project.
Triaging 10 bugs per day and given 3 months of work, the student
should be able to touch all of them. Maybe even fix trivial ones.

What do you think? In my opinion it's at least worth trying.

Cheers,
Tomek
