Hi Martin,
your proposal is definitely a step into the right direction IMHO.
Since in the past we've often had cases where a fix in one RC caused a
regression in the next one, I'd also like to see the developer's risk
estimation have an effect on whether an issue gets accepted as a
showstopper or not. Therefore I'd like to modify your proposed list of
showstopper criteria as follows:
...
* keyword data_loss set _and_ Prio is P2, P3 or P4 _and_ the developer's
risk estimation for breaking other functionality is "medium"
* keyword regression has been set _and_ Prio is P2 or P3 _and_ the
developer's risk estimation for breaking other functionality is "low"
* keyword usability or accessibility _and_ Prio 2 _and_ the developer's
risk estimation for breaking other functionality is "low"
...
Regards,
Jörg

Hi,
let me suggest some changes for the release of 3.4, please see
http://blogs.sun.com/ratte/entry/some_changes_for_the_openoffice for the
changes and the reasons why.
The changes in short form:
* define criteria release relevant issues, only these issues will get
3.4 target milestone
* remaining issue will get target milestone at the time of integration
automatically
* better transparency for issue by using<unassigned> ownership
* branch off for release will happen after stabilization phase
These changes will help to reduce the amount of rc's for the 3.4 release
and make the release more predictable, hopefully :-)
Affected by these changes are mainly QA and DEV people, setting keyword
or fixing bugs and of course the members of the release status meeting,
translation or documentation folks are not directly affected.
feedback by the participants of the release status meeting is
appreciated, especially we need an agreement of how to update e.g.
following pages:
http://qa.openoffice.org/issue_handling/bug_writing_guidelines.html
http://www.openoffice.org/scdocs/ddIssues_EnterModify.html#priority
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Showstopper
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Release_criteria

thank you for your support,
Martin
