Re: TRACKER/FLYSPRAY: When and How to use it
Hi everybody,
There is over 450 items in the Tracker Backlog.
In the next few days, I will start to close all items with no votes and with comments older than one year.

Re: TRACKER/FLYSPRAY: When and How to use it
Serge,
I think this is a good idea. I assume you are closing items that meet both conditions first. Then perhaps close all remaining items with no votes after reviewing the content and making your judgement.
Thanks for doing this.

at first glance, over 100 items (OpenCPN & plugins) will be closed with the status "clearance 2017".

Re: TRACKER/FLYSPRAY: When and How to use it
Serge, perhaps after that, we give a 1 month warning, and advise that all items with just one (1) vote will be removed unless, upon our review, we find something usful.
This will give the OP's a chance to garner more votes or to add a comment detailing why it should be kept, while letting the list become more meaningful.

Re: TRACKER/FLYSPRAY: When and How to use it
Hello,
200 requests out of 450 have O votes, that is far too much.
OPs need to express what feature is really important for them.
Thanks
Serge

Re: TRACKER/FLYSPRAY: When and How to use it
Hoy,
"Clearance 2017" has just begun, over 50 requests have been closed.
(rules : No Votes and the last comment is older that 1 year)
To prevent this, please give your vote to your favorite items.

Re: TRACKER/FLYSPRAY: When and How to use it
Serge is preparing for another Clean Sweep 2017 of all Feature Requests with Vote=0.
We have also increased the required votes for a Task to become "Vetted" to at least 7 votes, so your votes will be needed more more now.

Re: TRACKER/FLYSPRAY: When and How to use it
Serge I went through the Feature Requests 0 votes, and made a couple of comments. the others can go as far as I am concerned.
I hope you'll tackle the Single Votes next! (I am afraid I have a number of those myself but it would be great to get the "Feature Request List" exclusive of "vetted list" well below 100 items.

Re: TRACKER/FLYSPRAY: When and How to use it
may I suggest that developers add a comment at a tracker item, once they have addressed the issue raised.
This will encourage the originator to test implementation and close the request.
