[ovirt-devel] Closed bugs / issues rant

Hi, I want to share some thoughts on bugs and issues currently in closed state for a target milestone > ovirt-4.4.1 To my perspective: *Wontfix* should drop target milestone. The bug won't be fixed in the targeted milestone. Keeping the target milestone gives the false impression that starting from targeted milestone it will be magically done. *Deferred* should drop target milestone. The bug won't be fixed in the targeted milestone. Keeping the target milestone gives the false impression that starting from targeted milestone it will be magically done. *Duplicate* should have the same target milestone of the duplicated bug. Having a bug targeting 4.4.3 duplicated of a bug fixed in 4.4.1 can lead to impression the bug has been closed by mistake, being a regression appeared after the real bug has been closed. *Works for me* should have a target milestone set to current release. Having a works for me targeted to 4.4.3 while still working on 4.4.1 doesn't make sense to me. *Not a bug* should have a target milestone set to current release. Having a not a bug targeted to 4.4.3 while still working on 4.4.1 doesn't make sense to me. If it's not a bug it's not a bug already right now. I'm addressing bugs I stumble upon, but please take care of properly targeting your bugs. It helps a lot understanding what's being fixed and what not and why. -- Sandro Bonazzola MANAGER, SOFTWARE ENGINEERING, EMEA R&D RHV Red Hat EMEA <https://www.redhat.com/> sbonazzo(a)redhat.com <https://www.redhat.com/> *Red Hat respects your work life balance.
