I’m sure you’ve all heard about this, well if you haven’t I don’t know where you’ve been! Daniel, Nigel and Jorge blog about it every week and keep us all informed.

So what is it all  about ?

Operation Cleansweep was launched at UDS-M by Jono Bacon. The idea is to get the number of bugs with patches down to 0 by Maverick’s release. It is a huge undertaking considering that there are 2000 bugs with patches right now, and almost 80 new patches come in every month! It comes down to about 2000 bugs with patches to be reviewed by the end of the release.

How Can you help?

It’s easy to get involved in Operation Cleansweep. Just 10 minutes of your time can make a great contribution to the project. It’s coming up to UGJ folks, loads of time there over a weekend to spend some time on this!

We’ve set a daily target of 20 bugs per day. That should get us well on our way to reviewing all the patches in Ubuntu. We follow the Reviewers Guide for patches.

So Where can you start, there are a list of bugs waiting for your help, 1475 to be exact listed over HERE.  If every team got on board with this project over the weekend of UGJ we could knock a large chunk off that list of bugs so lets get on board and help the team out!
