Staying 3digit with open issues
-
How do we go to the next steps of having a 'triage' team? Shall we do a roll call of who is interested?

@lafayette @Panther @panther2 @beelee
I would rather focus on solving the issues on a code base and ask you to participate in the triage process. Would that be okay for you guys? -
@frigoref I'm in the same camp and would prefer to wear fewer hats. Without volunteers, all tasks fall on the maintainers, and again we get back into a pattern where the maintainers are too busy with overhead to actually do anything to move the project forward (this has been a problem repeatedly for the last 12-15 years for this project).
Failing a decent set of volunteers, we'll have to go back to draconian measures like blanket closing old issues, blanket closing issues that are not fully spelled out with clear reproduction cases, etc.. Those measures were very unpopular and created antagonism between those reporting any issues and us who are stuck spending excessive time just understanding what the problem is and recreating it. (CC: @Cernel because you were perhaps the most vocal opponent of the 'ice-boxed issues)
I think the question remains, who can volunteer to do this triage? What are the next steps to get this group off the ground and running?

I'm in, of course.
