It's only settable by people with editbugs priorities, which is members of the 'fedorabugs' FAS group, which is (basically) maintainers and BugZappers. See https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=495985 . Of course, if this doesn't change your mind, you are entirely free to do as you suggested and mass-set the tag to whatever you like for the kernel, since you are one of the maintainers of it. As the email mentions, the policy is that maintainers have ultimate control of both fields. -- 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
