Today I was at a session about Making Harvest Rock and was impressed with the possibilities of the tool. What is Harvest?
Harvest makes it easy to find low-hanging opportunities in Ubuntu. It aggregates the mass of todo lists we use every day so it’s simple to find and coordinate work. Harvest helps find bugs that could be easy to address, as well as changes that can improve packages. When updating your packages, take a look at the available opportunities to get a feel for what’s new both in and outside Ubuntu.
The tool is fantastic for contributors interested in bug triages and/or patches because it makes it much easier to access information from multiple data sources with out learning each individual tool. Harvest is in beta and there is a need for more people to use the tool and help make suggestions to improve it.
