Re: [xwiki-devs] [Proposal] Bug Fixing Day #6 on October 4 + BFD every first Thursday of the Month

And here are the results: http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Blog/BugFixingDayOctober2012 It's been a real success! The next BFD is planned for the 1st of November (first Thursday of every month). Let's hope we can reduce the bug count overhead to 0 during that day and finish what we started yesterday :) Thanks everyone -Vincent PS: Sergiu fixed more issues than appear in the results; that's because he fixed several improvement issues and they're not counted since this day is about bug fixing and reducing the bug count divergence. Edy also implemented one new feature for XEM (patch from Guillaume Delhumeau + some improvement) and it was also not counted for the same reason.
