I prefer B. If it becomes obvious to the maintainer that they need to separate things out, they can clone the bug then. If their work flow works best doing that then they can, without forcing more bugs on them if it does not. I personally ask submitters when they say it's affecting more releases or if they report against f10: "Do you think this warrants an update? Will you test it for me on that release?" Sometimes they say "no, I just wanted it fixed, fix it in rawhide and I will get it the next time there is a reason to update stable releases" and sometimes they want/need it fixed in the release they are seeing it in. > Cast your opinions and vote on how you prefer it. I don't think voting is a good idea. I think we should try and come to a consensus on what will help our maintainers and triagers and reporters handle bugs. > The majority of the outcome will decide on how Bug Hunters will be > directed to > handle this. I don't think a poll on the devel list should be used for this... Can't we agree on whats least disruptive and use that? > JBG kevin
