Bug#471562: Include maintainer karma on qa pages?

[Petter Reinholdtsen]

Package: qa.debian.org
Version: n/a; 2008-03-19
Severity: wishlist

One thing I suspect would be useful to have on the qa pages (as in
<URL:http://qa.debian.org/developer.php?login=pere@...> and
<URL:http://packages.qa.debian.org/b/buoy.html>), is information on
the maintainers karma as described on
<URL:http://asdfasdf.debian.net/~tar/bugstats/>.

It would make it a bit easier to decide if an NMU should be done right
away, or if it is better to wait more a bit to give a maintainer with
high karma value time to act on a given bug.

Happy hacking,

Hi Petter,

thanks for the suggestion. However, I wouldn't trust this karma at
all. It is just a formula that stashes too many variables together in
some non-meaningful way. It has some entertainment value, but I would
strongly oppose its usage on some serious QA page. Some of the
maintainers with high karma are actually quite MIA (e.g. turbo).

I'll close the bug as I don't think we can come up with a formula that
would actually work.

Christoph
