Status of bugs

Revision as of 22:25, 30 January 2016 by Philipn (talk | contribs) (→‎Bugs)

To report a bug, please use the bug tracker.

This page is intended to allow those developers without the authority to change the status of bugs on bug tracker to point out bugs that have been fixed, or other suggested status changes, to those who do have authority to update bug tracker. The goal is that this will be a short list, which is easier for the core developers to scan than the entire bug tracker list. Currently, it is just Lachlan's thoughts on the 50 or so "Patch submitted" bugs.

N/C means no change.

"Types" are chosen so that importance is typically decreasing if sorted by type: C=crash, E=error (wrong result), M=gives error on code Matlab accepts, O=bug in existing Octave functionality that is not part of Matlab, P=performance, X=extension (request to accept code Matlab doesn't accept).)
