== 10.2 Bug Fixing ==


=== Bug Fix Candidates ===
Currently, 10.2 bug fixes go into the mainline. On August 10 we plan
to cut a branch. From that time onward, we will need to port fixes
from the mainline into the 10.2 branch.

Select a bug you want to from one of the following lists.

||[http://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/IssueNavigator.jspa?mode=hide&requestId=12311067 10.2 Open Code Bugs]|| Code bugs that affect 10.2 ||
||[http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY?report=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.project:popularissues-panel Jira Popular Issues] || Look at the Jira Popular issues for bugs users would like to see fixed.  Bugs are marked with a red dot||


=== How To Fix a Bug for the 10.2 Release ===

The following work flow can help ensure fixes get committed efficiently. 
 1. Pick a bug you want to fix and fix it in the trunk.
 1. Submit your patch for the trunk.
 1. Mark the issue resolved only after the fix is in the trunk. The fixin fields should be marked as 10.2.1.0.

== Other Ways To Help ==
Besides making code changes in Derby, there are lots of other ways to help.

 * Vote for issues you want fixed in Jira to let developers know what you want fix.
 * Provide test cases that can be incorporated into the functional tests once fixed.
 * Review and test patches that are submitted to the list
 * Test the 10.2 snapshots


== Tips ==

 * See [http://db.apache.org/derby/derby_downloads.html Derby Downloads] for instructions on downloading and building Derby
 * See [http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-518#action_12329500 DERBY-518] for svn merge example and request to port to 10.1 branch.
 * Send any questions about release status or fixing bugs to derby-dev
