Hi, Steve, I follow the discussion coming out of this message with a keen interest, but I would vote strongly (as only one of bug zappers), against any individual exceptions from the general policies described on https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/BugStatusWorkFlow I would totally welcome any comments and criticism for this workflow AS WHOLE, but if we get too much in the exception business whole process would get too complicated for volunteers bug zappers. Having said that, I totally understand, that we should accommodate developers workflows as well (or in the first place?). I don't think that introducting CONFIRMED (or UNCONFIRMED) bug status is a good solution, because it a huge undertaking which would be friendly to some but hostile all others who managed to turn around their workflows around the current environment. For all those, whom the workflow suggested at the above URL doesn't fir into how they do thinks (and I was talking about that with some of them and they seemed to agree with me in the end; yes, Tomáš, I am looking at you! ;-)) I would point to the existence of the still living status ON_DEV. It is now of no use to anybody and there is no official use for it, however it still remains here (so that old bugs don't have to be converted, or something -- I am not sure what exact reasons lead bugzilla maintainers to keep it around, but good they did). Wouldn't it be possible for you to redefine ASSIGNED as "this is bug-triaged and really on my plate to do something about it, eventually" and then use ON_DEV as "the stuff I am working on right now"? By this, we (I hope) can acommodate your needs, and still we don't have to make big changes in our bugzilla (and bug zappers workflow). Any comments?
