Nathan Barry commented on CRUNCH-374:
-------------------------------------
Unfortunately returning a new status in this flow would be non-passive (a minor
annoyance) whereas returning SUCCEEDED would be more passive than DONE but then
we have added ambiguity to the meaning of that status.
> Pipeline.done returns READY when there is nothing to run

> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Nathan Barry
> Priority: Minor
>
> It is odd that Pipeline.done() returns a PipelineResult with a status of
> “READY” when there is nothing staged in the pipeline when done is called. It
> makes sense to not return “SUCCEEDED” as that implies that something happened
> successfully, but “READY” isn’t a terminal state but it’s an initial state so
> checking for a status of READY after calling done is counterintuitive.
> Perhaps a new status of “DONE” should be returned in this case
