I plan to write something, but I need help from a UX person.
I want a simple taskboard, with bugs, that people can claim by a simple click. Then a simple karma type system. ByWater have signed off 10 Catalyst patches, Catalyst have signed off 5 software.coop <http://software.coop> and 1 Bywater patch, leaving Catalyst 4 patches to go ... kind of idea.
It's not fully formed, but if it sounds like something people would to see, or explore further, let me know and I will devote some evenings to it.
I would totally be behind an idea like this.
Ideally it would be great to "easily" see if we (ByWater) really are doing enough to eventually get our patches signed off. Something like this would give us a great snapshot of where we need to quickly pick up the slack or just help another developer/company. Although I usually look for patches that are within my skillset to sign-off on, the company or person that submitted the patch is never an issue or goal for me to test or sign-off and I would urge that mind-set stay in the forefront for everyone (which I'm pretty positive that it will).
Maybe we could factor in the size of the patch a bit - giving more karma to 'large patches' than to an easier testable 'string change' so people are motivated to look at those too. Katrin
