Bug severities in Bugzilla
Hi all, Over the last few weeks i've been doing some QA work and there's one thing that strikes me about bugzilla (among others actually, but i'll just address one here now ;) ). When you file or edit a bug, you can set the severity. The current list of severity levels is: - blocker - critical - major - normal - minor - trivial - enhancement This doesn't work for me, and as i see nobody hardly ever changing it, i think it doesn't for most people. Maciej gave me the list used in Apple Radar: - Security - Performance - Crash or Data Loss - Serious Bug - Other Bug - Feature (New) - Enhancement This works a lot better for me. Perhaps we should use this list of severities? Any ideas on that? Next to that, i think all you people should read this: http:// tieguy.org/talks/OLS-2003-html/img0.html , a presentation called "How GNOME Learned to Stop Worrying and Love The Bug". Not because we're doing so badly, but because it's good to read about stuff like this by experienced people :).

In Radar, "Other Bug" is actually named "Other Bug/Has Workaround". Always seemed strange for me - what if a crasher has a workaround? :) - WBR, Alexey Proskuryakov

That may be true on the external Radar website, but it's not true on the internal Radar. -- Darin
