"NoScope" doesn't quite feel like saying "we're not really interested in this
bug/feature." "OutOfScope" (which admittedly is even more words <smile/>) might
be closer... but it misses the lack of interest part.
"Deferred" sounds a lot like we're considering it for future, which isn't true.
And yes, sometimes extreme "meh" sounds like "srsly" but it's the same in the
end: a technically correct feature we're not really interested in. <smile/>
I'm not coming up with better words myself yet so keep 'em coming... it seems
like it's out there.

Deferred is what we used at my last job.
In the meetings that I attended, sometimes I heard "meh" really was as you
describe but other times it was said with a tone of "you got to be kidding
me... whatever".

It's not strictly one word, but "NoScope" is pretty plain.

Subject: [WiX-devs] Resolution "meh"
I was supposed to send this out last week and forgot. At our last status
meeting we discussed a new resolution for issues that are technically correct
but we're not interested in actively tracking (usually because we don't care
for the feature... but if someone *really* wanted to do it...).
The word "meh" captures the concept but it isn't exactly the friendliest way to
communicate what we wanted. So, does anybody have better ideas for a
resolution? Keep it short. The ideal is one word (heh).
Suggestions?
Note: I also liked the concept of "-0" (aka: minus zero) but isn't immediately
clear what was intended.
