In knowledge production, especially in social sciences, humanities, arts, it’s not easy, nor it make sense on all ocassions, to develop and hold clear cut arguments. Hence, the culture of bug reporting which has been so essential and benefitial for software and networking communities (what i’m trying to develop under new paradigms as Open Process and The Internet Model) can not be re-used easily.
Yet, i’d like to try to show that in many cases it can be re-used and it other cases it can be partially re-used with adjustments.
I’ll catalog here bug reports that i submit, to keep reminding me of it. I’ll also try to develop some practical ideas on how could the culture of bug reporting be developed in social sciences and humanities, and what features and tools can i add to this website to enable reader to report bugs on my drafts – other than using comments feature.
Technical bugs reported:
- erlandplugins – Status: Fixed by software author
Own bugs (only a selection):
- perldoc – Status: i need to apply the fix
