I did wonder about suggesting:
A B C
wishlist: 1 1 1
minor: 2 3 4
normal: 4 9 16
important: 8 27 64
serious: 16 81 256
grave: 32 243 1024
critical: 64 729 4096
ie one normal bug is worth 2 (or 3, or 4) minor bugs, and so on.
An immediately attractive idea would be the value of one "critical"
bug - in which case, suggestion "B" might be better than A. Then
perhaps a linear spacing:
red: 729 *4/4 (80+ normal bugs)
yellow: 729*3/4 (60+ normal bugs)
green: 729*2/4 (40+ normal bugs)
blue: 729*1/4 (20+ normal bugs)
but I haven't actually tried it to see if it would work.
Well, it sounds reasonable to go with B because I have this additional
feature that bugs in dependent packages are weighted three times higher
than those that are only suggested. So a grave bug in a dependent
package would score the same as a critical bug in a suggested package
and we get color red for both cases.
Kind regards
Andreas.
