Dear Developers,

we had these *five* original statuses:

* unread (initial state; ticket just created without an owner)
* open (ticket has an owner; if you assign a ticket to an owner, use this
state)
* open-accepted (ticket was accepted by owner and s/he's working on it)
* pending-fixed (task is done but needs a verification by someone)
* closed-fixed (ticket was verified and the task is done)

In addition, we had special statuses but these were not available at SF so
we didn't assign them:

* wontfix (could be 'pending-wont-fix'; but I think it's more like "I'm the
owner but I won't fix it" so it's like 'unread')
* rejected (could be 'pending-rejected'; same as wontfix)
* outofdated (could be 'closed-out-of-date')
* duplicate (could be 'closed-duplicate')

I'm note sure whether we need all available statuses.
