Hi, A question was raised during Tuesday's (2015-09-15) Gluster Bug Triage meeting[1], and discussed today (2015-09-16) at the Gluster Community meeting[2] about how to handle currently open bugs and new bugs filed against GlusterFS versions which have reached end-of-life (EOL).
As an example, Fedora simply closes any remaining open bugs when the version reaches EOL. It's incumbent on the person who filed the bug to reopen it if it still exists in newer versions. Option A is: create a new set of 'umbrella' Versions, e.g. 3.4-end-of-life, 3.3-end-of-life, etc.; _reassign_ all bugs filed against 3.4.x to 3.4.x-end-of-life; then delete the 3.4.x Versions from bugzilla. Any new bugs filed against, e.g., any 3.4.x version are assigned to, 3.4-end-of-life. Option B is: create a new set of 'umbrella' Versions, e.g. 3.4-end-of-life, 3.3-end-of-life, etc.; _close_ all bugs filed against 3.4.x; then delete the 3.4.x Versions from bugzilla. Any new bugs filed against, e.g., any 3.4.x version are assigned to, 3.4-end-of-life. The main difference is whether existing bugs are reassigned or simply closed. In either case if a new bug is filed against an EOL version then during bug triage the bug will be checked to see if it still exists in newer versions and reassigned to the later version, or closed as appropriate.
