Erm, the bug would be filed against a particular version. EG the bug has to be filed against Fedora 14 in order to be able to use flags to mark it as a blocker for Fedora 14. Bugs filed against rawhide wouldn't necessarily be able to set flags (although that's an interesting discussion to have) The release blocker symbol name changes every release, whereas the flag could have a static name, which would make it easier to document and remember, in my opinion. -- Jesse Keating Fedora -- Freedom² is a feature! identi.ca: http://identi.ca/jkeating
