[cmake-developers] backlog status ?

[David Cole]

Yes. The purpose of the backlog status is to indicate that nobody will work
on it in the near future.

If you have bugs assigned to you that are not in the realm of your
expertise, then by all means, assign them to somebody else.

When putting bugs into the "backlog" you can either leave them assigned to
yourself (if you might come back to it eventually), or assign them to
"nobody".

Eventually, we will actively review the backlog periodically and activate
and assign bugs as people become available for making fixes. Or we can point
people who would like to "get involved" to the backlog and see if they are
able to pick anything off...


Thanks,
David
