Hi,

Currently there are 197 issues with status RESOLVED and resolution LATER
(half of them in the "www" component with target "CEE Consider-future"
though), plus 58 issues with status RESOLVED and resolution REMIND.
I consider those combinations mere nonsense, even if the usage is
explained in http://qa.openoffice.org/scdocs/issue_lifecycle.html#status

A status is a status, not some wishful thinking for the future. If we
needed a separate status for that it would be something like POSTPONED.
When searching for "open" (to be worked on) issues people and tools
query for issues that are not resolved and not closed. Having
a resolution means the issue is no issue (anymore). If the issue is
considered to be resolved later, set a target that says so and don't
pretend the issue was resolved.

Thanks
  Eike
