It'd be nice if it weren't user-*changable*. Also, it's hard for people to understand the distinction between priority (that is, urgency) and severity (importance). Sometimes important things end up needing to be lower priority, and that's not a slight against the bug request. Anyway, in this particular case, I figured it'd make triage a bit quicker, since one can generally trust that "low" really means it. [...] > As it stands the field is pretty useless. Making them settable only by the bug assignee or other privileged bugzilla users is probably worthwhile. I think upstream bugzilla 2.18 actually has this as an option already. -- Matthew Miller mattdm@xxxxxxxxxx <http://www.mattdm.org/> Boston University Linux ------> <http://linux.bu.edu/> -- fedora-legacy-list@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-legacy-list
