I don't think we can assume that. If, say, I'd seen an issue reported twice but not yet with sufficient info, I might set it to CONFIRMED, but it's not yet been triaged. > This additional state only becomes useful if there are people actively > looking in Bugzilla trying to reproduce bugs that have already been > triaged.

It's not necessarily about 'trying to reproduce', there are many cases where we know multiple people are experiencing a bug just from duplicate reports or follow-up comments. -- 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
