Thank you for taking care of this, Marcus! While we're on the subject, there have been some issues which were not resolved that were closed due to e.g. inactivity. I totally understand the need to keep the bug tracker to a manageable size, but I feel that something is lost when we do this. For example, a few times I've encountered a bug, felt like I'd seen it before, checked the issue tracker and didn't see it even though I was pretty sure I had already reported it, only to find out after a bit of head-scratching that I had reported it, it still existed, but had been closed. I find it very confusing.
Thinking about how to have it all, I thought that we should have a status especially for these cases, so that they still exist, but can be easily filtered out; something like "Stale". Actually, then we can probably be even more agressive tagging them and getting them out of the way because they will not disappear. My feeling is that this is still an "Active" status, because there are definitely some long-standing bugs that we continuously gather info about and there should be an obvious place to gather those bits. On the other hand, even if it was a "Resolved" status, at least I'd know right where to look if I didn't see my issue and could have a filter to easily revive an inactive issue that was found to still be a problem. What do you think? Thanks. ----- Cheers, Sean -- View this message in context: http://forum.world.st/Issue-Tracker-input-of-submitters-bug-fixers-needed-tp4710498p4710530.html Sent from the Pharo Smalltalk Developers mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
