Andre,
c. Accept non-fix resolution
- Accepting all non-fixed resolution.
- STATUS is RESOLVED; RESOLUTION is not "FIXED" (I count at least 5 non-"FIXED" RESOLUTION values)
Sorry but I don't know what you mean by "accepting" here. :/
When I look at the non-"FIXED" RESOLUTIONs that I know about (INVALID, WONTFIX, LATER, DUPLICATE, and WORKSFORME), the next step is to REOPEN it or accept the resolution and change status to VERIFIED. Here is a chart with these RESOLUTIONS: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/reports.cgi?product=Wikimedia&banner=1&am...
Thanks for the question, Al Snow

Thanks. These could be added to https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Project:WikiProject_Bug_Squad/Activities
Some more ideas could be to concentrate on a single module (e.g. extensions) or to update/try to reproduce issues that were reported for old versions and have not seen changes for a while (in Bugzilla's query.cgi under "Search By Change History" you can replace "Now" by e.g. "-731d" to get all tickets without any changes for the last two years). Or to update/retest the reports that you filed yourself, or.....
a. Up-front
- Confirming bugs and assigning them to developers.
- STATUS is "UNCONFIRMED", "NEW", "REOPENED"; RESOLUTION is N/A
I'd say that this normally requires knowledge which developers work on what. To me that makes it a harder task for "newbies" and might require people that have been in the community for quite a while. Just trying to clarify potential prerequisites.
b. Verify fix * Verifying fixes (STATUS is "RESOLVED"; RESOLUTION is "FIXED")
At least for more recent fixes this might require running (potentially unstable) code from latest git master instead of a (stable) tarball? Somebody please correct me if I'm wrong. Again, just potential prerequisites.

@matanya et al: I'd highly appreciate if you could try to document how to organize a bugday for future organizers (e.g. announcement, potential problems), and maybe alongside update (or identify gaps in) the Triage Guide at https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Bug_management/How_to_triage whenever needed. (But that guide is rather incomplete currently anyway.)
