[Libreoffice-qa] Bibisecting Bugs

Hi All!

Hope this email finds everyone doing well.

I wanted to ping the team to see if we can pound through these last few 
bibisect request this week so that we can get them off of our plates. 
We're down to 10 bugs on the list, if anyone sees one that a bibisect 
doesn't seem useful, feel free to remove the request (unless a developer 
specifically asked for a bibisect - in which case, don't remove it ;) ). 
If in doubt, leave it there and leave a comment asking "is a bibisect 
really useful or needed here?" Once this is done we can move on to 
putting more on the list (yay...) and also going through those bugs that 
are bibisected and adding them to the new MAB meta tracker as QA has 
done everything that we can - but of course the only ones that belong on 
it are the really annoying ones, minor regressions, although 
unfortunate, don't belong on the MAB list.

So my suggestion:

1. Finish off the list found here:
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/buglist.cgi?list_id=359658&status_whiteboard_type=allwordssubstr&query_format=advanced&status_whiteboard=bibisectrequest&bug_status=NEW&bug_status=ASSIGNED&bug_status=REOPENED

2. Go through the list of bibisected bugs and prioritizing them, any 
that fall into "highest" category, throw them on the MAB bug located here:
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=70941

3. If anyone has the skills - it would be nice to go through those 
bibisects and try to locate the specific commit that broke it and CC the 
appropriate developer - but this is quite advanced and far out of my 
skillset ;)



Thoughts?


All the best,
Joel
