Hi all,

This morning the discussion of certain statuses for bugs came up in #centos-devel on IRC.

Scenario:

• Bug reported. For argument an aged bug that is >= 1 point release lower than current point release for the bug.
• Bug cannot be reproduced on same major release/current point release.
• Reporter asked for feedback - Do they still have the issue? etc.
• Feedback does not come in 6 months.

At this point it was decided the bug should not be closed, but an appropriate status be assigned. Current statuses do not really cover the above scenario. One suggestion on IRC was a status of:

CLOSED_NOFEEDBACK

Thoughts, ideas, suggestions?

Phil
