[gNewSense-users] Weekly stats update.

[Chris Andrew]

Hi, everybody.

It's that time, again. The week went something a little like this:

0. Bugs:

Bug page: http://bugs.gnewsense.org/
Bug stats: http://wiki.gnewsense.org/Main/HowToHelp

35 bugs.
No change from last week

We need to try to solve some of these, and not just hope that somebody
else will!

1.  Package Freedom stats:

PFV page: http://wiki.gnewsense.org/Main/PackagesInMain
PFV stats: http://wiki.gnewsense.org/Main/HowToHelp

We have 91 100% free package sections, which is an increase of 14
sections.  Wow, thanks Bt!

If you want to Markus' script, to update the stats, look here:

2.  Report on Suspected non-free table:

http://wiki.gnewsense.org/Main/SuspectedNonFree

The Suspected non-free table doesn't seem to be getting as much use as
it should be.  Please note that any packages that you are not sure
about, should be recorded here, and a bug raised.  If the bug has been
raised already, add your new findings to the bug, and x-refer your new
findings on the Suspected non-free table.  IF IT'S NOT DOCUMENTED, IT
DOESN'T GET RESOLVED! :-)

I sent out an email reminder regarding the Suspected non-free table.
This doesn't seem to be being used correctly.  If you have an item in
here, PLEASE confirm that you've reported it as a bug.  This hasn't
happened on all the entries.  PLEASE CHECK :-).  For the columns that
don't have dates of the last update, I have recorded _No
date-STALLED_.  When this area of the wiki gets scripted, it will
automatically highlight the entries that don't seem to be moving on,
and get reported weekly. Please update!!

Edi, laidbackvampire, twk, mattflaschen and Petrock, could you check
your entries, please.

Markus, or anybody that feels they can script the _Suspected non-free_
table, like Markus did on Packages/ MAIN, please could you contact me
(Cheers).

3.  It's been a good week, so well done, everyone, especially Petrock
and Bt!  Please note that Packages/ MAIN/ c is available to be
adopted.  It is 95% free, so it could be a quick win for someone.

Thanks as always :-)

Cheers,

Chris.
