I marked (in the past) several issues as target 4.2.0, not only in gsl. 
Now I see that in

https://bz.apache.org/ooo/query.cgi
the Target Milestone box contains both "4.2.0" and "AOO 4.2.0". The 
latter should not be there, whatever product one chooses.



But now there is a new flag "4.2.0_release_blocker" which can maybe help
in the meantime.


Thanks! Of course, for a 4.2.0 release, the meaning is different than in 
the past. It will mean "something that is not fixed yet and that it must 
fixed by 4.2.0" (and it will make sense to use it when closer to the 
RC). Since we have no branch for 4.2.0 yet, and we won't until we are 
close to the release, it will not mean "something that is fixed in trunk 
and should ported to the release branch" for the moment.

Re: Can we add the value "N/A" to the Target Milestone field

[Top-Posting]

OK, as there were no further comments and no real disagree I'll create a 
new RESOLVED - NOCODEFIX resolution status. This status should be set 
when an issue was solved with no change in the source code (e.g., user 
requests or how-to questions).


For every fix that touches the source code please use as always the 
RESOLVED - FIXED resolution status.

I don't see why this brings more confusion. It's the opposite, one
status for "resolved with a code fix" and the other for "resolved
somehow else".


It brings more confusion since it would need to be explained explicitly
(because DONE or MANAGED would apply, looking purely at their meaning,
to a code fix too, and it's only a convention that we use them for
"no-code" fixes only).


maybe, but the whole BZ can be confusing - especially for normal users. ;-)

Do you have any idea in mind?


It doesn't have to be "NOCODE", but it should be
something that means "nothing to do with code", and DONE does not
really
convey the right meaning here.

Then NOCODEFIX sounds more concrete.


Yes, NOCODEFIX sounds good too. Again, so long as it is a word that a
developer cannot be mistaken into choosing instead of FIXED, it will be
OK for me. What we want to avoid is that a developer accidentally uses
DONE for a code fix and the issue is suddenly not listed in QA and
similar.


I got the idea to rename FIXED into FIXEDINCODE. Unfortunatelly, it's a
default and therefore a non-changeable name. :-(

the "AOO ..." targerts are coming from disabled products. Issues cannot

It seems I need some more time to fix this also. Then we should be so

What's the maximum length? Maybe FIXED_WITHOUT_CODE is even more
intuitive (but OK for me with the other option too!).


I've created both and got no problem or error message.

OK, you won ;- ) : New status is FIXED_WITHOUT_CODE.
