Some bugzilla users have been irritated by the fact that we mark bugs fixed that are not fixed yet in the current release.
Following a suggestion of Jean-Marc, I have thus defined a new keyword "fixedinbranch". This might limit confusion, and I also can check the fixed bugs against status.15x before the release. Please use this keyword now instead of closing the bug. We'll see if this practice is useful or not. Thanks, Jürgen
