Hi -- Love OTRS, use it daily. How can I see what activity is going on in development of OTRS? It doesn't look like the CVS tree has been touched in 3 weeks. I'd love to help where I can; it looks like things are stalled at the moment (maybe burnout from 2.4!).

Just check: http://source.otrs.org/viewvc.cgi/otrs/ And have a look at File "Changes". Last change is 13 hours ago. -- Greets monotek@gmx.net On 27.10.2009 05:02, Peter Beckman wrote:

Great! What can I do to help? I do development myself, and I'd be happy to contribute, but the dev mailing list is pretty quiet, and some of the issues I'm having I'm fixing myself, and outside of attaching a patch to a bug, is there more I can do? --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Peter Beckman Internet Guy beckman@angryox.com http://www.angryox.com/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Just submit your patches to the bugtracker @ bugs.otrs.org. -- Greets monotek@gmx.net On 27.10.2009 16:29, Peter Beckman wrote:

One suggestion -- In the search box on bugs.otrs.org, under "Enter a bug # or some search terms:" I searched StateDefault before submitting what turned out to be a duplicate bug (4456 duplicate of 4433). Because the default search only searches Open, Assigned or Reopened bugs, the duplicate I would have found (and saved some effort on behalf of the developers) did not show up at all, because it was Resolved. May I make the suggestion that the default search on the main bugs page include ALL Statuses, or at least a checkbox to include all statuses? Since the project has a fairly low volume of tickets, including all statuses shouldn't be too much of a load on the system, and would avoid my mistake of not doing an advanced search.

Hi Beckman, many thanks for your interest in the OTRS.org project. If you'd like to monitor the progress of the OTRS sources, I can advise you to subscribe to the CVS mailing lists: http://lists.otrs.org/cgi-bin/listinfo/cvs-log You could also subscribe to an RSS feed of this list, for instance through Gmane: http://rss.gmane.org/messages/complete/gmane.comp.otrs.cvs Here you will see all submits done to the CVS source code. I second Andrés suggestion of using the Bugzilla to provide patches. You could also use the dev@ mailing list to discuss issues, or maybe use the #otrs channel if you're an IRC guy. Some of the OTRS developers, and other knowledgeable people, frequent the channel.(http://otrs.org/news/2009/otrs_on_irc/) I'll look into your suggestion of also searching closed tickets in the bugzilla by default, thanks for that. Looking forward to see your contributions! -- Michiel Beijen R&D OTRS AG Norsk-Data-Str 1. 61352 Bad Homburg Deutschland T: +31 (0) 6457 42418 F: +49 (0) 9421 56818-18 I: http://www.otrs.com/ Business Location: Bad Homburg, Country Court: Bad Homburg, Commercial register: 10751, Tax ID: 003 240 97505 Chairman of the Board: Burchard Steinbild, Managing Board: André Mindermann (CEO), Martin Edenhofer CU@ IIR Service Desk Forum in Mainz (Germany) and get to know more about OTRS at booth no. 12 from Nov 24-25, 2009!
