I think whether a fix is in a stable upstream release, CVS, a particular alpha release or similar should just be described in the trac ticket. There are just too many combinations otherwise. If someone knows of an upstream bug fix, they should just put the information as text. > The only downside I can see is that tickets won't be updated from case > 3 to case 4 - but that's still going to be a vast improvement over what > we have now. There is no reason a trac ticket could not be updated from case 3 to case 4, but clearly that is not going to happen automatically.
