there is a bulk task, yes.

the benefit is that users know:
-it is resolved (in trunk) but not fixed (in a release)

Yep: Select all the issues that have been resolved with the desired "Fix
version", Bulk change, transition through workflow.

And what exactly is the benefit? Isn't it  just as easy to get a list of

Good question: at Tiles we use this approach, while at Struts we close
simply the issues.

Well, it's just a question of tastes...

This seems to be a fairly large task for the release manager to do - or is 
there an easy way to do a bulk change of jira statuses?

And what exactly is the benefit? Isn't it  just as easy to get a list of 
"closed issues with fix-version=x.y.z" as it is to get a list of resolved 
issues?

Cheers, Simon

Common practice in the past was that the release manager sets all
"resolved" issues to "closed" after the release is out.

jira: resolved versus closed status

2008-01-09 Thread Simon Kitching
Hi All, 

I see that there are quite a few issues in JIRA marked as "resolved".

The status of "resolved" means that the developer thinks it is now fixed, and 
is waiting for either the person who raised the request or the QA department to 
check it and then close the issue.

If you fix an issue, and there is no-one who is going to double-check it for 
you, then please mark the issue as *closed*, not as *resolved*.

Thanks, Simon
