Absolutely right. In fact, we should not even mention it to a new reporter until the need arises. > - Triagers will most likely have a good grip on all the words used for one > topic and might even derive additional information from the nuances (as > Terrence shows here ;) ) Triagers would be the first to apply standardized vocabulary. Subject, of course, to us wanting not to discourage people who a just not interested in vocabulary. The goal is to be able to ignore uninteresting bugs more efficiently. > - Ultimately: Who should be the consumer of these queries/standardisation?

I see the primary user being a triager (or maybe a reporter) looking for duplicates. <sky color"blue"> Developers do not matter, because we (QA) are going to do such a good job that no developer ever has to look at a bug she is not interested in and which is ready for her attention. </sky> Hey, I admit that that is "blue sky". How far can we expect to advance toward that? How much value is there in the yet-to-be-demonstrated incomplete result? I do not know, but the sheer number of words I am writing suggests the improbability of a good result. Sigh. Perhaps the detail page for a bug should have a button meaning "I am a developer, and I have looked at this bug, and I am sorry that I spent my time this way." Well, a buttopn plus the opportunity to say what enticed him to go there is the first place.
