Hi Kathey,

How is this field used? Does it take two values (Urgent, NotUrgent) or does it cover a broader spectrum? This might help us separate the concepts of priority and severity. However, I think there will continue to be confusion as long as a field named "priority" is used to hold the concept of severity.

Regards,

Hi Kathey,
I think that this is a defect in JIRA. If someone knows how to add a severity field to our bug tracker, that would be great.

I notice when I take a Jira report there is an URGENCY option, under custom fields with:
   Blocker      Urgent
   Normal
   Low

But I don't see it available for Derby. Is it possible we could enable this for Derby rather than mutating priority meanings on which presumably the priorites for over 1500 issues have been based?
