Assumpte: Bugzilla guidelines for l10n

Hi,
it's me again. I was originally going to write this in the message about
Metro, but then I realized it was becoming way too long.

During last week I had a glimpse of how messy the Mozilla Localizations
product is in terms of pending bugs: 3 years old open bugs with no
activity, fixed bugs still marked as NEW, etc.

Imagine a component in Bugzilla as a garden: right now Mozilla
Localizations resembles an abandoned garden. With wandering zombies in it
:-)

How can we improve this situation? I'm not sure if some of these features
are available to all users, if not please let me know.

*Follow your locale*
If you're not doing it already, start following your own locale on Bugzilla
and try to keep it as clean as possible. Every time someone opens a bug in
this component, you'll receive a bugmail.

   1. Login to BugZilla with your account and go to Preferences->Component
   watching (https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=component_watch
   ).
   2. Select Product "Mozilla Localizations".
   3. Click on your locale in the "Component" section.
   4. Click Add.

*Resolve bugs*
If a bug is resolved, it should be marked as RESOLVED FIXED, then verified
on the next build and marked as VERIFIED FIXED. Don't leave open bugs
around (remember zombies?).

*Check pending bugs*
You can also perform a search for open bugs in your locales and save it:

   1. Do an Advanced search on Mozilla Localizations -> Your locale  for
   bugs with Resolution "---".
   2. When results are displayed you'll see a "Remember search" button at
   the bottom of the page, give it a name (e.g. "Italian bugs").
   3. From now on you'll see a link in the footer of all Bugzilla pages to
   perform the same search.

*Clear review and needinfo requests*
If someone falgs you for a review, or set a NEEDINFO for you, you should
try to clear these requests.

   1. Reviews: click on the review link in the attachment section, chose
   "+" if the patch is good, "-" if is not, " " (blank) to reset the request
   if you shouldn't be reviewing the patch.
   2. Needinfos: when you reply, below the comment you'll see a checkbox,
   already checked, saying "I am providing the requested information for
   YOURACCOUNT (clears the needinfo request).". If you're providing the
   information requested, leave it checked and comment.

When you login to Bugzilla, you should see a red circle with a white number
near the title Bugzilla@Mozilla. Behind these requests there are people, so
be kind to them and reply ;-)

Francesco
