I would be resistent to add such a keyword given there is no official owner for any feature in WebKit. Call it however you like, it was just an example (appropriate candidate might also be NeedsPeceAndLove); the idea is to track orphan features that might be appealing to contributors seeking opportunities and to give them at least some advantage in taking over. Also, we can always file a new bug to re-implement the feature when time comes. What would be the rationale in this case? This doesn't seem very convenient to me: tracking past work would save time and work to new contributors. ___ webkit-dev mailing list webkit-dev@lists.webkit.org https://lists.webkit.org/mailman/listinfo/webkit-dev

I don't think we should mark bugs resolved if the code is still in WebKit, the bug is not fixed, and we'd accept a fix. If we're looking for volunteers to hack on particular areas, I think a wiki page seeking volunteers is likely more effective.
