    It's easy one to fix. The issue filler will get some score
only after review and confirmation from quality engineer from Oracle.
    
    
  
  

I actually agree with this. But FishCat should have some very clear
ways to score.

  

For a 'bug'

1) You need to search for duplicates

2) You need to post a message on the GlassFish users mailing list
saying you searched for dups : 2 Stickers

3) Someone else needs to comment : 2 Stickers

4) When someone does not have a clear answer you can log the issue

5) The issue must have clear steps to reproduce and question was asked
on GlassFish users mailing list : 2 Stickers

  

So someone who just logs an issue gets 2 Stickers

So someone who goes though the process gets 6 Stickers

  

This is just an idea to show how Stickers can be earned.

    That why I'm suggesting to make virtual currency instead of
plain points.
    You will be able to earn the currency in many ways. For
example helping on forums, suggesting new features, making demo or
promoting the product. I will describe in details how it should work in
the document that I will have prepared by Monday.
    

    
    If virtual currency idea will not get support then we should
ask Richard to rename points to stickers and beg his daughter to
provide us with some amount of them :)
    
    
  
  

lol, I am thinking this is not a bad idea.

If we can't reward with anything tangible (like money) besides the
other benefits obviously, let's call it what it is and maybe add some
humor in it.Being apart of FishCAT should be fun and not always serious
all the time. Developers usually have a _strange_ sense of humor; let's
attract them that way.

Being serious all the time is for .NET people ;-) Do you think we will
be sued for that slogan ?

  

Every FishCAT member should start with a clear slate every few months,
so you can compete with the other FishCATs in the class for stickers.

  

  

regards

Richard.
