[ I added gnucash-devel in to the conversation ] I started a new job about a month ago. Here, there are regular QA reports, and one of the items they report is the number of unverified bugs. Marking a bug resolved only means that engineering thinks they have fixed it.
Sorry about all the mail. Only 3495 bugs to go :-| Of more interest, of course, are the 822 bugs which are still new or open. I've started to go through them, looking for duplicates or patches to apply, adding requests for more info. We need to bring the number down as part of 2.4 release.

I guess we've really never differentiated between "resolved" and "verified". Personally I've never looked for a closed bug without knowing something about what I was looking for. Initial reporters rarely "verify" bugs. I was just wondering about all the mail. ;) -derek Quoting Phil Longstaff <plongst...@rogers.com>: > They're only resolved, not really closed.
