I was also wondering if a bug with a higher number of votes should be
taken to be more severe. Or having higher priority?

Hi Kathey,
I think we're on the same page. I hope my reply to Dan's question
clarified the intention of my mapping table. I'm trying to figure out
how we assign Urgency values to existing 10.2 JIRAs. I'm asking whether
this is the algorithm you would use.

Thanks, Kathey. I think this does capture what I mean. I think this is

Here is the forrest definition, which looks closely correlated with
with what we are trying to achieve.
If I had my druthers I would alter Urgent a bit to include

Hi Kathey,
How is this field used? Does it take two values (Urgent, NotUrgent) or
does it cover a broader spectrum? This might help us separate the
concepts of priority and severity. However, I think there will continue
to be confusion as long as a field named "priority" is used to hold the

Hi Kathey,
I think that this is a defect in JIRA. If someone knows how to add a
severity field to our bug tracker, that would be great.
I notice when I take a Jira report there is an URGENCY option, under
custom fields with:
Blocker
Urgent
Normal
Low

Can you put some words around "Priority 1" and "Priority 2" so I have
a better understanding of where to draw the line?

Hi Kathey,
I agree that this is a bit confusing. In other bug tracking systems
which I have used, there is a distinction between the priority and the
severity of a bug. Priority is the field which helps engineers figure
out which bug to tackle next. Severity captures the bug's impact on

I am looking now at the known open regressions and am still struggling

Thanks to David for taking DERBY-1377. That leaves one last unassigned

DERBY-936 is a Documentation issue. Recently, there was some discussion

definitely at the top of the list.
