[Libreoffice-qa] Weekly focus: SVG / We ducked below 1000 unconfirmed bugs

[Stéphane Guillou]

Hi Eyal

* There are issues with the graphs on Bugzilla, with a big gap in 
logging stats between 2018 and 2020, as you've noticed (the seemingly 
linear increase).
You can have a look at the QA Dashboard to see changes in that period, 
in the Timelines tab (with the caveat that pre-2017 data is not complete 
because a chunk of older data is shaved off the data dump).
https://stragu.shinyapps.io/lo_qa_dashboard/

* Regarding the dramatic jump in 2020, that's likely the impact of many 
new "home offices" around the world during Covid restrictions. Lots of 
new users, so lots of new reports.

* Finally, the triaging effort in July and August 2021 seems to be a 
collaborative effort. Looking at the weekly top 10 for bug confirmers 
for that time period, here's a selection:

Ilmari Lauhakangas 	233
Xisco Fauli 	84
Roman Kuznetsov 	64
Heiko Tietze 	41
Nabet, Julien 	41
Faure, Jean-Baptiste 	31
Timur 	25
BogdanB 	24
Dieter 	18
Raal 	18
Stéphane Guillou 	15
steve -_- 	13
Andreas Heinisch 	10
NISZ LibreOffice Team 	10
Eleonora Govallo 	8


This is obviously only partial, but gives you an idea of the biggest 
contributions. Ilmari was doing triaging live streams back then as well.
When compared to the previous period of the same length, there was 
definitely a significant increase in number of changes made to reports, 
as well as in number of contributors. Hence as sharp decrease in 
unconfirmed bugs.

Hope that helps! :)

Cheers
