Bug Fixing Day 19
Yesterday we had our Bug Fixing Day #19. For the 5.x development cycle we've decided to intensify our bug fixing and invert the bugs created vs bugs fixed ratio so that we're always in the green, by having weekly BFDs.
We had 4 participants (with a guest star!) and we managed to close 13 bugs!
Our goal is to reach even for the past 1000 days. At the end of this BFD we're now only lagging behind by 36 bugs, which we'll squash in the next BFDs. We also have defined a master plan for removing over 100 bugs at once but shhh.... it's a secret plan... 
More on that later on!
Congrats everyone!

Bug Fixing Day 18
Yesterday we had our Bug Fixing Day #18. For the 5.x development cycle we've decided to intensify our bug fixing and invert the bugs created vs bugs fixed ratio so that we're always in the green, by having weekly BFDs.
We had 5 participants and we managed to close 18 bugs!
We have now more bugs closed than bugs created over the past 2 years!
Congrats everyone, and let's finish what we started during the next BFD!
