Summary0003633: Not enough active issue editors (moderators)
DescriptionCan some of the active and trusted users on the issue tracker be given editor privileges, please?

Rationale: Some tickets are now just lying around with nobody acting on them, due to OP not providing enough information and such.

Secondary rationale: Some tickets in "Zandronum" project are staying as "needs testing", even if they are resolved for that release and to be closed later. Alternatively, some issues in "Site" project are permanently "new".

I start by proposing to add myself as an editor to all projects. I already have "developer" rights in the Doomseeker project as a QA tester.

0003632:0020498 is an example for my rights to be elevated.

Fyi, I think the "Doomseeker" project's issues are well-managed at the moment.

I could support if this means tickets are answered - someone actualy cares to at least look at example wad and define something as BUG. If I know no one will look at my example wad - I just don't feel like even making it.

Actualy after little investigation it seems you have some quite dirty past, something always put me off about you. This is even more interesting. We will se what will happen next.

I wouldn't mind being able to assign and de-assign myself from Zandronum tickets as I work on them, but I understand that only two small tickets (one finished and one worked on) are not enough to give privilege trust to someone. Wub has demonstrated to do an excellent job at managing the tracker as far as I'm aware of (plus reporting lots of issues providing lots of info of the problem). I don't know much about Filystea, so I can't say much :)

This is off-topic, but what MantisBT does upstream is the "assignee" of an issue is responsible for handling that issue ticket; if you're the reporter and submitted a patch, the assignee usually a different developer to review it, ask for feedback (what problem does it solve), etc.
