here is an urgent request for comments. We still have ~2400 bugs in state NEW
Hi Bjoern,of course I see the problem, but I have absolutely no problem with that fact, because I use a query basing on my experience. You find it here:
<http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/BugTriage#Process> The hit quote for bugs needing "maintenance" is neaby 100% vor me.
So here is my proposal: I want to batch change all those old unconfirmed bugs (without the now obsolete CONFIRMED in whiteboard status) to state NEEDINFO.
If you want to do the bulk change, you should avoid to change hundreds of "Really NEW" old bugs to NEEDINFO.
I recommend only to modify bugs what are NEW and fulfill some additional criteria (no user with QA-Experience is involved), what leads to this query:

It's intended that no developers are included because mostly they only contribute some useful information, but will not continue "maintenance" for those bugs.
And - may be you will get some indignant comments because of Bugs 30876, 31022, 31055, 33232 ;-)
Please involve libreoffice-qa@lists.freedesktop.org into such discussions! Best regards Rainer
