Groups/Proposals/Bug Squad

MediaWiki Group Bug Squad
This ongoing group welcomes anyone interested in monitoring, reproducing, and verifying bug reports. Members will work with Wikimedia users and developers to help locate, confirm, and fix bugs within Wikimedia's projects features.

We hope to integrate the Bug Squad Wikiproject into this group.

Activities
This group will be involved in holding public Bug Days -- an event where developers and Bug Squad members and others who are interested in assuring the quality of bug reports collectively prioritize, validate, and assign bug reports.

General Activities include:
 * coordinating, triaging, and organizing the current bug reports in Bugzilla
 * writing documentation for bug management
 * coordinating MediaWiki deployments

Areas of collaboration:
