I'd love to hear your thoughts on this, even if it is just a quick +1.


Here's my quick +1, with a question: when I report a bug (typically a small
regression) that I would like to see fixed in the possible 4.0.1 release,
shall I already set the Target to 4.0.1? In ancient times this was left to
the developer who had accepted the bug, but we are now less strict in
Bugzilla usage. And setting the target to 4.0.1 would help in evaluating
if/when we need a 4.0.1.


That question probably deserves its own thread.  IMHO we need to
decide what a 4.0.1 is:

1) We might want to have it contain fixes for only the most urgent
bugs.  We could include new translations that are available as well.
If we make that restriction then the QA impact is less.  We don't need
to do a complete regression test pass.   If we did that then we could
use the "release blocker" field to track these issues.  We'd only fix
issues in 4.0.1 that have been discussed as release blockers.

2) Or we could open 4.0.1 up to all changes, in which case new bugs
can be introduced anywhere, possible translation impact, etc.

Personally I think 4.0.1 should be more like #1 -- strictly limited to
specific bug fixes.   We then use 4.1 (the trunk) for non-urgent
fixes.

OK, before I put in my 2 cents also here. Rob or Andrea, will you open a new thread?
