Hello, 

Can you tell us how many groups are really using this status wrong values at 
GNU Savannah? At CERN, only one groups is in this case, so we won't write a 
script just for one group, it is faster to do the job at hand.

Summary:  update script forbidden unplanned use of Status field

Original Submission:  Last year, it was decided that the Status field would 
only be a boolean for Open/Closed.

Now, we realized that old installation that migrates from pre-Savane havent got 
the Status field values different from Open/Closed removed. This is true for 
LCG Savannah and GNU Savannah.

Usage of field values different from Open/Closed does not make the trackers 
unusable by break the logic of many things. 

A script must be written to make this change smoothly for users.
What remained to be determined is:
        - whether we map usage of Status to Resolution
        - whether we do not map resolution and just update
          the field status in the way it makes sense
        - whether we copy Status into a custom field

In all case, we'll have to 'update the field status in the way it makes sense'.

We need some user input from CERN to make a decision. We'd like to hear also 
some info about the case at Savannah -- are they many groups using the field 
Status in this way? What's the way to go in your opinion?

Anyway, a decision will have to made today -- but in the worse case, it will 
still possible to modify the script we will provide. 

This script will be included in update/1.0.4 but wont have any effect on 
installation made since Savane is release -- more precisely, since the 2003 
CERN branch. For instance, Gna! is unaffected by this problem.

Regards,
