| …and also 238 other reporters who created less than 3 reports each, but 287 reports combined! | |||
1 The total number of new reports (including “excess reports”). Reopened reports or reports with a changed version are not included, because it was not technically easy to retrieve those. This is one of the reasons why you shouldn’t take the numbers too seriously, but just as interesting and fun data.
2 Excess reports are those that were closed as NOTABUG, WONTFIX, WORKSFORME, CANTFIX or INSUFFICIENT_DATA. Excess reports are not necessarily a bad thing, but they make for interesting statistics. Close manual inspection is required to separate valuable excess reports from those which are less valuable.
3 This only includes reports that were created by that particular user and accepted as blockers afterwards. The user might have proposed other people’s reports as blockers, but this is not reflected in this number.

Did your research include the many bug reports listed in RedHat bugzilla against each testing release? Oh by the way, some of those reports were not addressed by the individuals listed above.
For future flowers and roses (eg badges), please review Bugzilla against the future F30 beta.
