Privileges you need for OOo.org QA
Just as a brief overview, the QA team is primarily focused on reviewing all the bug reports ( we sometimes call them issue reports ) that all the enthusiastic users of OpenOffice.org software submit.
In order to change any of the fields that a bug report has ( for example, the version of OpenOffice.org that the bug is found in ) you will need extra privileges on top of your default set of privileges that all OpenOffice.org user accounts have.
Obtaining extra IZ privileges
To obtain these extra privileges is simple:
| 1. | Join the qa@openoffice.apache.org mailing list and check out the latest team news and topics.
You can learn more about the mailing list at: |
| 2. | Check out some issues that other active team members have worked on. |
| 3. | Add some comments to issues to get a feel for using IZ and how the process works. |
| 4. | Send an email to the qa@openoffice.apache.org mailing list with the subject line |
| Volunteer Privileges - <Your OpenOffice.org Userid here> | |
| On of the team leads will shortly grant you privileges in IZ so that you can edit all the fields in a bug report. |
