[Gluster-devel] Request for assistance on improving bugs.cloud.gluster.org

Hey all,

if you are not aware of its existance yet, please have a look at
http://bugs.cloud.gluster.org/ . This site contains a list of open bugs
and the status of patches posted for these bugs. The data that this page
displays is gathered each night, it is not real-time.

At the moment, many bugs are in an incorrect state. Developers need to
be aware that release- and sub-maintainers have to keep an eye on the
open bugs. Bugs in a wrong state clutter the view and make it very
difficult to see what work is still pending. The webui is helpful
already, but, of course, it can be improved much more.

I would like to make bugs.cloud.gluster.org easier to use. For this, I
would like some assistance from others. The code for the website is
located in a GitHub repository [1]. Development is rather easy. You can
run the data gathering script on your local system and open the
generated .html file with your browser.

    $ git clone https://github.com/gluster/gluster-bugs-webui.git
    $ cd gluster-bugs-webui
    $ bash run-report.sh
    (or download the latest .json file from [2])
    $ firefox gluster-bugs.html

Several requests for feature enhancements have popped up already, you
can find these as "issues" [3]. If there are any other improvements you
can think of, do not esitate to open a new feature request [4].

It would be much appreciated if others could share their ideas, and
possibly send patches or pull requests.

Thanks,
Niels
