Stage can only be set by "Developers", the "patch" keyword can be added by anyone and it's added automatically when a file is attached to an issue. > b) stage:patch review and keywords:needs review > As above, but the "needs review" keyword is not added automatically. > Aren't those redundant? Why are those keywords needed? They are somewhat redundant, but the keywords allow regular users to signal that an issue needs review and/or has a patch. I don't know if this is the reason they were added in the first place, but removing them and make the stage settable by everyone would be fine with me. Note that doing this will break a few things that look for the "patch" keyword, including the weekly report, the detector that sets the "patch" keyword, possibly the "issues with patch" query in the sidebar, a meta-tracker patch we made yesterday at the Helsinki sprint[0], and perhaps other tools. Updating these things is not difficult though.
