I cannot completely agree.
IMHO "Ready for review" should also be explained in comparison to "Ready for
testing". It is not clear from scratch if you are not in the context.
>From another side for our case it is easy to get this context just looking
at the issues Statuses agenda --> Sequence is there and always on top so you
can see what is the flow and got the meaning of Statuses very quickly.
If we add to it comments that we have during the status changes which point
to mercurial commits or to QA verifications I think that we make clear our
policy and there is no false there.
Having said that and also taking in consideration that we have a long
history of current Statuses, people inside and outside got used to it I even
changed my mind and sure that we should not change Resolved status to
something else and should leave it at the current stage.
We want to have benefits from the CI and MP cycle. It is great and let us
have new statuses associated with them (I would vote for "Auto tested" and
"Verified" but do not have strong objections against "Ready for review" and
sth else) but let us do not change created habits (it is always painful and
I don't see that they are wrong to do so).

Good point, agree 100%.
