+@qq{Issues} isn't just a politically-correct term for @qq{bug}.
+We use the same tracker for feature requests and code TODOs, so
+the term @qq{bug} wouldn't be accurate. Despite the difference
+between @qq{issue} and @qq{bug}, we call our team of contributors
+who organize issues the @emph{Bug Squad}.
+
+The Bug Squad is mainly composed of non-programmers -- their job
+is to @emph{organize} issues, not solve them. Their duties
+include removing false bug reports, ensuring that any real bug
+report contains enough information for developers, and checking
+that a developer's fix actually resolves the problem.
+
+New volunteers for the Bug Squad should contact the
+@ref{Meisters, Bug Meister}.

+We highly recommend that you configure your email to use effective
+sorting; this can reduce your workload @emph{immensely}. The

+@subsubheading Emails to you personally
+
+You are not expected to work on Bug Squad matters outside of your

+(or an update to a report) to you personally. If that happens,

+
+Some of these emails will be comments on issues that you added to
+the tracker.
+
+@itemize
+If they are asking for more information, give the additional
+information.
+
+@item
+If the email says that the issue was classified in some other
+manner, read the rationale given and take that into account for
+the next issue you add.
+
+@item
+Otherwise, move them to your @code{bug-ignore} folder.

+
+Dealing with these emails is your main task. Your job is to get
+rid of these emails in the first method which is applicable:
+
+@enumerate
+@item
+If the email has already been handled by a Bug Squad member (i.e.
+check to see who else has replied to it), delete it.
+
+@item
+If the email is a question about how to use LilyPond, reply with
+this response:
+
+@example
+For questions about how to use LilyPond, please read our
+documentation available from:
+ @uref{http://lilypond.org/website/manuals.html}
+or ask the lilypond-user mailing list.
+@end example
+
+@item
+If the email mentions @qq{the latest git}, or any version number
+that has not yet been officially released, forward it to
+@code{lilypond-devel}.
+
+@item
+If a bug report is not in the form of a Tiny example, direct the
+user to resubmit the report with this response:
+
+@example
+I'm sorry, but due to our limited resources for handling bugs, we
+can only accept reports in the form of Tiny examples. Please see
+step 2 in our bug reporting guidelines:
+ @uref{http://lilypond.org/website/bug-reports.html}
+@end example
+
+@item
+If anything is unclear, ask the user for more information.
+
+How does the graphical output differ from what the user expected?
+What version of lilypond was used (if not given) and operating
+system (if this is a suspected cause of the problem)? In short,
+if you cannot understand what the problem is, ask the user to
+explain more. It is the user's responsibility to explain the
+problem, not your responsibility to understand it.
+
+@item
+If the behavior is expected, the user should be told to read the
+documentation:
+
+@example
+I believe that this is the expected behaviour -- please read our
+documentation about this topic. If you think that it really is a
+mistake, please explain in more detail. If you think that the
+docs are unclear, please suggest an improvement as described by
+@qq{Simple tasks -- Documentation} on:
+ @uref{http://lilypond.org/website/help-us.html}
+@end example
+
+@item
+If the issue already exists in the tracker, send an email to that
+effect:
+
+@example
+This issue has already been reported; you can follow the
+discussion and be notified about fixes here:
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+(copy+paste the google code issue URL)
+
+@item
+Accept the report as described in
+@ref{Adding issues to the tracker}.
+
+@end enumerate
+
+All emails should be CC'd to the @code{bug-lilypond} list so that
+other Bug Squad members know that you have processed the email.
+
+@warning{There is no option for @qq{ignore the bug report} -- if
+you cannot find a reason to reject the report, you must accept
+it.}

+
+@subheading Updates / discussion about issues
+
+We try to keep discussions about issues on the tracker, but
+sometimes it spills over onto email. If discussion has ended with
+no patch / resolution and at least @strong{3 days} have passed,
+then either:
+
+@itemize
+
+@item
+Summarize the recent discussion on the tracker, and add a link to
+the original discussion.
+
+@item
+Add the comment @qq{there was some technical discussion which I
+could not understand}, and include a link to the original
+discussion.
+
+We do not expect Bug Squad members to be programmers, or even to
+be moderately-skilled users. Your job is to keep track of issue
+reports; it is @emph{perfectly acceptable} to not understand
+discussions between advanced users and/or developers.

+
+@subheading Regular maintenance
+
+After @strong{every release} (both stable and unstable):
+
+@itemize
+
+@item
+Regression test comparison: if anything has changed suspiciously,
+ask if it was deliberate. The official comparison is online, at:
+
+@c NOTE: leave this here. In this case, it's worth duplicating
+@c the link. -gp
+@example
+@uref{http://lilypond.org/test/}
+@end example
+
+More information is available from in
+@ref{Precompiled regression tests}.
+
+
+@item
+Issues to verify: try to reproduce the bug with the latest
+official GUB version; if you cannot reproduce the bug, mark the
+item @qq{Verified} (i.e. @qq{the fix has been verified to work}).
+
+@example
+@uref{http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/list?can=7}
+@end example
+
+A few (approximately 10%) of these fixed issues relate to the
+build system or fundamental architecture changes; there is no way
+for you to verify these. Leave those issues alone; somebody else
+will handle them.
+
+@item
+Check for any incorrectly-classified items in the tracker. This
+generally just means looking at the grid to see any items without
+a Type or Priority.

+to help is definitely recommended. However, the Bug Squad should

+
+Once every year or two:
+
+@itemize
+
+@item
+Checking all regtests: although we have a system for checking the
+regtests between two versions, occasionally a bug will slip
+through the cracks. It is therefore good to manually examine all
+the regtests (compare the images to the text description). More
+information is available from in @ref{Regression tests}.
+
+
+@item
+Checking all issues: we try to mark each Issue @q{fixed} when we
+fix it, but occasionally one or two issues will slip through the
+cracks. It is therefore good to check all Issues. If you see the
+same (broken) output as the initial report, then simply post a
+@qq{Problem still exists in 2.x.y} message to the issue.

+@end itemize
