Today in Bugzilla, over 350 bugs were resolved as either Fixed, Invalid, Duplicate, or Worksforme. It was a good day for bug cleanup with the growing BugDay team knocking down about 280 Invalid, Duplicate, and Worksforme bugs. If you're interested in being a part of the BugDay efforts, come join us on IRC each and every Tuesday.
Just as a side note, I haven't posted my Mozilla Developer Day presentation yet (hopefully in the next day or two) but in prep for that event, Myk and I did a little bit of digging in the Bugzilla data to update some of the community involvement statistics I like to brag about in these kinds of presentations. These are all rounded off but I certainly think they're exciting, so I'm sharing them here as well.
We have about 50,000 people who have ever reported a bug in Bugzilla. About 17,000 of those people are repeat reporters who account for about 200,000 reports.
Henrik Gemal is the top bug reporter with almost 2,600 bugs reported. Ten people have reported more than 1,000 bugs. About 50 people have reported 500 or more bugs. Just over 1,000 people have reported 30 or more bugs, and about 3,000 people have reported 10 or more bugs.
On the bug resolving front, including Fixed, Duplicate, Invalid, Wontfix, and Worksforme, more than 7,600 people have resolved at least one bug report.
Boris Zbarsky is our top bug resolver having personally put to rest over 7,700 bugs (your fearless blogger, here, has resolved just under half of that number, mostly as Duplicate, Invalid, and Worksforme). More than 50 people have resolved 1,000 or more bugs. 350 people have resolved 100 or more, and about 900 people have resolved 10 or more bugs.
We've got a large and prosperous community of engineers and testers but there's always room for more. Every week we're growing those numbers, working with lots of new faces -- people who have decided that they want to be involved with more than just an occasional bug report. If you're one of those people who wants to make a real impact on the quality of the Mozilla products, join us on BugDays, every Tuesday, and we'll have friendly and knowledgeable people on hand to help you take that next step. It's fun and rewarding.
