1. GTK+ Patch triaging

Once or twice a month, a "Patch biohazard report" is sent to the GTK+ mailing list. It's meant to draw attention to quickly fixable bugs that include simple patches. Most GTK+ hackers never go through the bugzilla patch list because it's big and really cluttered.

The goal is to create short summaries promoting a small collection of these patches so GTK+ developers can quickly accept or reject those patches.

Currently this is coordinated by JavierJardon (jjardon) and ChristianDywan (kalikiana). You can find them in the IRC in the #gtk+ channel on irc.gimp.org.

Go check current unreviewed patches and do the following:

Read the report, see if it still makes sense
Try the patch and see if it applies cleanly
Fill below a new entry in a category that makes sense

Using terminology similar to previous issues is suggested but using something new is also welcome.

1.1. Sending a new Issue

Basically these are the steps to follow:

Read the last email, see if any of those bugs were fixed
Check this page for the bugs marked as commit now or docs or easy fixes
Wrap up a list of 9 or so bugs in 3 sections: easy fixes, docs, proposals/ complex stuff
Put your bugs with links and a one line comment in a new issue or the current one being worked on
Send it to the GTK+ devel list, but please let someone know about this before, patchsquad list is a good place for that.
