Notes & Observations on Change Process

1. (2008-04-04) We have to change subsequent processes to:
   1. only send one email notification
   2. NOT send mail to fedora-triage-list for initial change
2. (2008-04-04) Using fedora-triage-list as CC to collect mail is working well
   • gives multiple people the ability to triage resulting updates
3. (2008-04-07) Does fedora-triage-list bugzilla user need to have a Fedora Account and Fedora bug privs?
4. (2008-04-07) Suggestion from notting that a bug not be included in the cleanup effort more than once
   • we could probably key off of bzcl34nup for this
   • for example if a bug has been moved from FC6 to rawhide, do not rebase it to Fedora 9 at GA of Fedora 9--let it get picked up during the F10 rebase
5. (2008-04-07) In the context of Fedora and our inability to successfully maintain more than two releases
   1. Is there ever a situation where it makes sense to keep bugs open for an EOL release?
   2. Could there be a way for maintainers who desire to keep bugs open for EOL releases to do so?
6. What should happen to bugs that are Features--FutureFeature keyword is set?
   1. Has FutureFeature been set on all applicable bugs? Is this a formal part of Fedora bug handling procedures?
   2. Should they remain rawhide?
   3. Should they be rebased at GA?
   4. Should they ever be auto-closed if a certain period of time goes by with no activity?
