Thanks for your help, stahnma
Thus far, I've taken to using the whiteboard feature to classify bugs. It's not pretty, but should get the job done for now. These are the terms I came up with on a whim. Again, nothing too scientific.
ActualBug - Bug in the software or depencies PackageBranch - Bug is basically saying package 'foo' is missing from EPEL UpdatePackage - Bug is asking for a newer version of a package
I *think* I got through all the bugs. We closed about 6 in the last 24 hours probably just from people getting a reminder email :).
I would like a way to report on the whiteboard field, and the query of EPEL bugs. I looked at python-bugzilla a little, but didn't get very far with it. If anybody would like to write a script to basically show us if I missed any bugs, that would be very nice.
I was also thinking that we could try to handle the PackageBranch bugs soon. These just need somebody to ask a Fedora packager if they would maintain the package in EPEL. If they say no, post to this list and somebody may jump in. If a package needs lots of deps to get in, perhaps we open more bugs on it? Thoughts?
