+1 for the proposal This will bring some consistency to the process
Regarding Closed vs Resolved, should we go back and switch all the Resolved issues to Closed so that is is not confusing to new people to the project in the future that may not have seen this discussion? I would recommend changing it to Closed just to be consistent since that is the majority and the new process will be using Closed going forward Those are my thoughts for now On Sat, May 23, 2020 at 7:48 AM Congxian Qiu <qcx978132...@gmail.com> wrote: > +1 for the proposal.
