I can't tell from searching Bugzilla & Gerrit
- can you give a bug
number or commit number?
Indeed, I'm not sure what this refers to either.
Will there be
another push to fix UW bugs before september? There are
still open issues that we would like to see resolved before WLM.
Strainu, is there a unified list of those issues? I did some searching
and I couldn't find one.
Seconded - if you want to create a tracking bug for issues that you
see as blockers for WLM 2012, that would be very helpful.
We don't have a lot of dedicated effort on Upload Wizard right now,
but a single contractor (Mark Holmquist) will continue to churn
through issues/feature requests at least for another 2 months or so,
and Brion and Kaldari have kindly been helping with code reviews and
improvements. The main priority areas for improvements are error
handling + small UX issues.
Plus, there's an exciting GSOC project for improved Flickr integration
(

), Kaldari is mentoring that one as well.
