yes, it's the BUG-O-MATIC! it slices! it dices!

Round and around and around it goes; where it stops, only D knows!

Several people in irc have mentioned how much they like it when I pull out bugs that I particularly want done and try to match them up with people to do them, since it takes the pressure of having to pick a bug to work on away from them. I am offering to do the same for people who don't frequent irc, or are never there when I'm around!

If you want me to suggest for you a selection of bugs that I think you might enjoy working on, tell me:

* Your experience level (n00b, beginner, middling-fair, experienced, hot shit)
* Any areas you particularly like working on
* Any areas you particularly hate working on
* Any areas of the code you know you don't know, or that confuse you or whatever, and you don't particularly want to learn right now
* Your favorite patch you've written so far (the one you were most proud of, the one that was most fun to do, etc)
* Whether you're looking for something simple or complex, and how much free time you have to devote to DW in the next month or so

I will then suggest for you a list of 3-5 bugs that I think you might enjoy doing! There is no obligation involved -- the bugs will not be automatically assigned to you, nor will they be your responsibility to fix. This is just an opportunity to get a selection of bugs pointed out to you that you might not pick out of the 600-some open bugs clamoring for attention, in the hopes you might find something interesting to work on.

:D Cycling between "I am procrastinating from my GSoC project by working on these" and "I am procrastinating from working on there by working on my GSoC project" seems like an excellent way to spend my summer break!

* Your experience level To compensate for my lack of familiarity with the DW code and the utter hideousness of some parts of the LJ code, I am going to say beginner
* Any areas you particularly like working on Not specific areas of the code, but I like little "this is so friggin annoying (but easy to fix)" things.
* Any areas you particularly hate working on Nope.
* Any areas of the code you know you don't know, or that confuse you or whatever, and you don't particularly want to learn right now Nope.
* Your favorite patch you've written so far My favorite is one that I haven't submitted yet because I can't actually test it because it involves email posting, purely because after six years of "WTF IS THAT WHY DOES IT NOT MAKE SENSE DDDDDD:" I have finally conquered regex.
* Whether you're looking for something simple or complex, and how much free time you have to devote to DW in the next month or so Simple would be awesome, and I have aaaaaaaall the time in the world this month.
