[Freemind-developer] Appoint new FreeMind testers and "bug managers"

[Eric L. <fre...@zo...>]

Hi Chris,

testers must be able to change fields, (re)assign and close bugs (if 
obsolete) which they have not submitted. For this, they need to be 
developer, and possibly tracker manager (not sure what the minimal 
correct role is!?).

As for specific name, perhaps Ray is still willing to help (I think he's 
still on the list, so he can answer for himself), or perhaps Ryan 
(r6vyyavryg) who is helping quite a lot users on FreeMind's forum (I 
could ask him if you agree).

Basically, there are still remaining 130+ unassigned (and unreviewed) 
bugs in the tracker, and it'll take me time to go through them, help 
would be more than appreciated.
