17. LET’S GET TECHNICAL
18. d.o Issue Queues Drupal and all contrib modules have bug reports/feature requests created as issues. Some maintainers have multiple projects (e.g. Dave Reid) Not possible to answer all issues Some issues are simple “How to do this?” questions Solve the issue by improving the documentation.
19. Issue queue workflow Active: no work yet. Needs work: fix proposed, but needs improvements. Needs review: fix proposed, needs to be tested. Reviewed & tested by the community (RTBC): proposed fix works!! Fixed: The proposed fix was committed. Party time!!! Closed: The state that all issues want to have.
20. OK.. So.. What about code? • Drupal core • Highest visibility. • Lots of bike shedding. • Drupal contributed modules • Visibility depends on the popularity. • King-of-the-castle.
21. Not only Drupal. • Linux (not easy to get into) - int **writtenInC (or assembly) • Apache / nginx (don’t know a lot about it..). Both C. • MySQL / MariaDB. (MariaDB is gathering momentum) C/ C++ • PHP (!!!) - also in C. • parse_url(‘tel:911') • jQuery, Symfony, composer, AngularJS, node.js, etc.
22. Calling all heroes!
