Re: [xwiki-devs] [Proposal] XWiki Days every month?

Hi devs, We've had several special days in the past: * Deprecation day ** 26 April 2012: http://markmail.org/thread/c5oytyvgw6fcimqq * Bug fixing days: ** 11 june 2008: http://xwiki.markmail.org/thread/oyfxis3umqrvutxm ** 18 June 2008: http://xwiki.markmail.org/thread/brfx6gme37vgr3m5 ** 25 Jun 2008: http://markmail.org/message/nrobo3x4ppgssklk ** July 2008: http://xwiki.markmail.org/thread/mn5veblndbtgcsm5 ** 10 Feb 2011: http://xwiki.markmail.org/thread/rierrb2wk72dkpqy and result http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Blog/BugFixingDayFebruary2011

* DocHour days: ** 5 March 2008: http://xwiki.markmail.org/thread/dyypju5dn23wkwr2 I think it's a good concept and I'd like to propose that we regularly (once every month?) have an XWiki Day. Ideas for such days: * Bug fixing day: Reduce bug count * Doc day: improve xwiki.org * Deprecation day: reduce # of deprecated calls. Around 1700: http://nemo.sonarsource.org/drilldown/violations/XWIKI?&rule=squid%3ACa… * Violation day: reduce # of violations. 10274 right now: http://nemo.sonarsource.org/drilldown/violations/XWIKI * Javadoc Day: Add missing javadocs in our code and remove checkstyle excludes * Code Coverage Day: Add as many tests as possible (unit and functional) * Broken Links Day: fix as many broken links as possible on xwiki.org. To find them is easy: we just need to enable the IRC Link Checker botlet and wait on IRC to get them! I propose that whenever a day is over, we send a mail with the Date and Topic for the next day and it has to be about 1 month from the date of the mail. To get this started I volunteer to be responsible for sending Day emails for now, unless someone else is interested to do this. WDYT?

Thanks -Vincent
