What made my day
Strange times... While I was quite productive recently I had a terrible start into this week. Maybe it's the weather change (we more or less dropped from sunny ~35°C down top rainy ~20°C), or that (nearly) everyone but me is on vacation at work, a boring project or maybe it's that I can't attend this years DebConf. Whatever it is, I don't feel that well and am quite grumpy (Hard to believe for those who know me, but at least I feel grumpy ;)
So, reading I spotted this topic in Debian Project News.
from a
user who actually joined a discussion on Debian's development list can
actually make my day :)

Recent RC-Bug activity
Remember the one rc bug a days
activities from Steinar and Zack?
Well, maybe I won't make to one rc bug per day, but at least I could blog
about some of my recent activities. Maybe it motivates some others?

[Update] RC Bug stats again published in this blog
As you have probably already seen, I started again to publish the statistics of the release critical bug reports. I stopped to do so, when I restarted to send out the Debian Project News, where they are also a regular part.
However I've been told, that quite some readers script the last part of the DPN with the regular things, like DSAs, New and Noteworthy packages, etc., as they already know them. So here they are again, published every Friday noon (CEST) by a tiny script.
Update: Moritz Muehlenhoff just informed me, that I should also ingore RC bugs having the tag security for my statistics, as they come in all over the time and can always be fixed with a security update or in a point release. Currently 34 bugs have this tag, bringing the total number of bugs to be delat with down to 187.
