The mail being forwarded was originally intended for MIrantis internal mailing list, but then I've realized that it fits as well to the general Openstack mailing list.

To: mos-dev <mos-...@mirantis.com> ... or why we shouldn't use Launchpad at all Hello all! Recently thanks to our new LP reports tool I've discovered that we "lost" 3 bugs in MOS Horizon. Well, they weren't actually deleted, instead they were set to "Won't fix" in the Milestone/Series they were originally filed to. I've decided to find out what it takes to correctly change the bug milestone to not lose it. Here is the absolute minimum of steps tested on ~10 bugs I've just moved from 6.1 milestone to 7.0. 1. Nominate the bug for series 7.0 (and make sure it's also nominated for 6.1) 2. Change status in 6.1 to "Won't fix" 3. Refresh the page (it's important!) 4. Observe the new link in the rightmost column of the top row in a list of affected series - 'Mirantis Openstack 6.1' and change it to 'Mirantis Openstack 7.0'. 5. Repeat for whatever number of bugs you have for the milestone that's almost soft code-freezed. That's it! Now, you will see all the bugs (in my case, with 'horizon' tag, query https://bugs.launchpad.net/mos/+bugs?field.tag=horizon) in the standard Launchpad view, which wouldn't be the case if they were still tracked as of 'Mirantis Openstack 6.1' series which got "Won't Fix" status. Of course, you could also use LP Reports tool, but it's still slower than native LP UI due to a larger number of calls it makes. And frankly speaking, I'm eager to see Storyboard project ready to finally move away from this sordid piece of software called 'Launchpad'. -- Timur Sufiev -- Timur Sufiev
