Roundtable

  • QA would like to remind developers to mark their bugs fixed1.9.1 when they land them on the branch, as then QA can go along and verify them.

    • see “blocker report”, above, for a list of bugs that might actually be fixed on 1.9.1 but not have the keyword set!
  • Proposal: use fixed1.9.2 and verified1.9.2 for trunk bugs.If when a trunk bug is fixed, it was marked with the appropriate fixed and verified keyword, we would always be clear where the bug is fixed and would not have this continuing confusion. Thoughts?

    • this is the way we’ve always done things

    • sometimes (even now) it’s unclear that 1.9.2 will indeed be the next branch
    • people felt like trunk is trunk, and we should be using FIXED and VERIFIED keywords that way
    • QA could also add the verified1.9.2 keyword (or verified-next-milestone-here) in addition to using verified as a way of helping, though
