Unnecessary, you can tell the user within the closing comment
    in which branches you fixed the bug. Don't forget that it can
    CHANGE later, someone reverts the fix or the fix wasn't needed
    or.. you get the picture.

Hi,

some of you may be aware of the wiki I set up to manage/document the todo lists and parts of the release management for PHP releases. In response to this Wez created a set of patches to enable developers to set milestones (aka PHP versions) for bug reports. While I do not think this replaces the need for the wiki (which is maintained independent of php.net ressources anyways), which is way more flexible, I think its a very good addition.

For example we currently mark things as "fixed in CVS" even if things will never be fixed in the branch for which the user filed the bug report (like with the streams API). Therefore I think its a very important tool to let users know when things will get fixed. I could see the same kinds of things happen with unicode issues being reported in the 5.x branch but only getting addressed in php 6.x.

Anyways I think it would be a good idea to add this feature again along with the ability to filter by milestones on the "advanced search" page. I think this would make the life of our RMs alot easier as well.

regards,
Lukas
