The ON_QA / FAILS_QA loop doesn't make too much sense for Fedora as there is no paid QA group wired into this loop. 'QA' is the reporter. I think it should just be a simple setup as the reporter describes; reporters should be allowed to set bugs back to ASSIGNED from MODIFIED. At present I'd say you should just post a comment to say the fix doesn't work for you. It's then the maintainer's responsibility to change back to ASSIGNED and fix the fix. -- 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
