I think the main issue of Ulrich's mail was not whether the bug should be fixed or not but that when someone moves the product from the SUSE version to the version when the bug was fixed other people that see the same issue with the _old_ version where it didn't work can't find it any longer. On the other hand side when you don't change the product you cannot set the "fixed in" tag correctly. Finally the issue can be concluded by stating that the problem results from the fact that Novell bugzilla uses Product to actually specify a version. There is no need now to explain why this actually makes sense here because we most likely all know this reason. To fix this issue a schema redesign for bugzilla would be required but due to the fact that this is a minor issue we most likely can just live with it.
