My understanding of unscheduled and nonblocking as is per http://subversion.tigris.org/issue-tracker.html [[[ When an issue is first filed, it automatically goes in the "---" target milestone, which indicates that the issue has not yet been processed. A developer will examine it and maybe talk to other developers, then estimate the bug's severity, the effort required to fix it, and schedule it in a numbered milestone, for example 1.1. (Or they may put it the unscheduled or nonblocking milestone, if they consider it tolerable for all currently planned releases.) An issue filed in unscheduled might still get fixed soon, if some committer decides they want it done. Putting it in unscheduled merely means it hasn't been scheduled for any particular release yet. The nonblocking milestone, on the other hand, means that we do not anticipate ever scheduling the issue for a particular release. This also does not mean the issue will never be fixed; it merely means that we don't plan to block any release on it. ]]] Not sure about 'blue-sky'. There are only 16 open issues with this milestone. I always took it mean something along the lines of 'not going to happen before 2.0 or without a massive amount of work for limited gain', but I don't know that there is any official definition. > -- > Certified & Supported Apache Subversion Downloads: > http://www.wandisco.com/subversion/download -- Paul T.
