You're not entirely correct, but it's not at all your fault :) The 'odd' statuses like ERRATA (which you got right, good job!), CURRENTRELEASE, DEFERRED, NEXTRELEASE etc come from the RHEL bug workflow, which is clearly defined. The Fedora flow is not really clearly defined at this point; the statuses from RHEL lead to confusion and people use them for different purposes, and it all gets a bit messy. We need to define this, but we can't do it solo, it must be in concert with the developers. I'm not sure what would be the best way to organize this. Jesse? Will? James? WDYT? There is a rather good internal presentation (James, you probably know what I'm talking about - it's part of that internal Bugzilla course you were bugging me to take :>) which clearly explains the RHEL bug workflow, but I'm not sure if this is externally available. Do any RH-ers know if that can be got outside of RH, or if something similar is available publicly? That would be useful so everyone can see how it works in RHEL and why certain statuses exist, which would make it easier to define the Fedora flow without confusion. > I have also drafted definitions for "Urgent", "High", "Medium", and > "Low" for Severity and Priority, just as a starting place for > discussion. Thanks, I'll take a look at those later. -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Fedora Talk: adamwill AT fedoraproject DOT org http://www.happyassassin.net -- fedora-test-list mailing list fedora-test-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-test-list
