--- Comment #5 from Nate Graham <pointedst...@zoho.com> --- My objection isn't that people are misusing the statuses. It's that several of the statuses themselves don't adequately convey what we think they do, or seem unnecessarily harsh. For example, you point out that WONTFIX is used for denied feature requests, not bugs. But then the word FIX is inappropriate; you fix bugs, not features. Features are implemented, not fixed. So this should be called WONTIMPLEMENT or WONTDO or something like that. You see, the word WONTFIX *implies* the existence of a bug that we are consciously deciding not to fix. Since that's not accurate, the word isn't expressing to novice bugtracker users what we think it does. INVALID had a judgmental tone. I think NOTABUG or CANTREPRODUCE are softer and more expressive. Finally, it RESOLVED DOWNSTREAM appropriate for bugs that turn out to be hardware-related? It's not clear. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
