FWIW, I've never heard that interpretation before. As far as I knew LATER means "this is not a current high priority and is also a distraction for the next X weeks/months/years and we want to hide it from some searches / reports so that people have a clearer view of what needs to be tackled at the moment" and does *not* mean that there's any expectation that the issue has been fixed or resolved or disappeared or been found to be unreproducible. So, e.g. support for using alternative backends for storing MW data (not a database and not SQL) might be a legit request but is not something that people should work on in the foreseeable future unless they have some reason to care about it personally. (or funding from someone who does) But it shouldn't necessarily be WONTFIX either. It's not *totally* crazy, a lot can change in a year (or 4 months!) and we could revisit it. (of course that time period can be somewhat context sensitive. but generally would not be "we'll look at it again in 3 weeks". for that you can use milestones. speaking of which... milestones can be added for you if needed. I think.) -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ Wikibugs-l mailing list Wikibugs-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikibugs-l
