A part of my concern is setting expectations around temporally based priorities that may not jive with a team's use of bugzilla, and/or setting a precedent for somehow interrupting a team's normal flow. But if I'm the only one who doesn't agree with assigning temporal values to priorities I don't want to bikeshed or otherwise stand in the way of this getting done - we can always revisit it later if it turns out to be problematic/ineffective/etc. -- Arthur Richards Software Engineer, Mobile [[User:Awjrichards]] IRC: awjr +1-415-839-6885 x6687 _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
