The distinction is a tricky one for us, because everyone files bugs in ubuntu-docs, and often they are packaging bugs, which we will fix, and Daniel will upload. But, I suppose that to be consistent with Malone we really have to continually reassign bugs to the upstream product releases, even though we don't release ubuntu-docs anywhere except for Ubuntu. So, that handles the "changing" part. Not the "seeing" bit though. There is literally no field which tells the normal user what release has been targetted, AFAICS. > My understanding is that in the future, Malone will incorporate this > workflow: anyone can "nominate" a bug for a milestone, but an authority must > confirm it. Sounds quite cool, if the authorities have time to deal with all the requests. Matt -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] gnupg pub 1024D/0E6B06FF
