-This page describes the life of a bug report.
-
-- When a bug is first reported, it is given the **NEW** status.
-- Once a developer has started, or is planning to work on a bug, the
- status **ASSIGNED** is set. The "Assigned to" field should mention a
- specific developer.
-- If an initial
- [patch](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Patch_(computing)) for a bug
- has been put into the [Gerrit code review
- tool](http://review.gluster.org), the status **POST** should be set
- manually. The status **POST** should only be used when all patches
- for a specific bug have been posted for review.
-- After a review of the patch, and passing any automated regression
- tests, the patch will get merged by one of the maintainers. When the
- patch has been merged into the git repository, a comment is added to
- the bug. Only when all needed patches have been merged, the assigned
- engineer will need to change the status to **MODIFIED**.
-- Once a package is available with fix for the bug, the status should
- be moved to **ON\_QA**.
- - The **Fixed in version** field should get the name/release of
- the package that contains the fix. Packages for multiple
- distributions will mostly get available within a few days after
- the *make dist* tarball was created.
- - This tells the bug reporter that a package is available with fix
- for the bug and that they should test the package.
- - The release maintainer need to do this change to bug status,
- scripts are available (ask *ndevos*).
-- The status **VERIFIED** is set if a QA tester or the reporter
- confirmed the fix after fix is merged and new build with the fix
- resolves the issue.
-- In case the version does not fix the reported bug, the status should
- be moved back to **ASSIGNED** with a clear note on what exactly
- failed.
-- When a report has been solved it is given **CLOSED** status. This
- can mean:
- - **CLOSED/CURRENTRELEASE** when a code change that fixes the
- reported problem has been merged in
- [Gerrit](http://review.gluster.org).
- - **CLOSED/WONTFIX** when the reported problem or suggestion is
- valid, but any fix of the reported problem or implementation of
- the suggestion would be barred from approval by the project's
- Developers/Maintainers (or product managers, if existing).
- - **CLOSED/WORKSFORME** when the problem can not be reproduced,
- when missing information has not been provided, or when an
- acceptable workaround exists to achieve a similar outcome as
- requested.
- - **CLOSED/CANTFIX** when the problem is not a bug, or when it is
- a change that is outside the power of GlusterFS development. For
- example, bugs proposing changes to third-party software can not
- be fixed in the GlusterFS project itself.
- - **CLOSED/DUPLICATE** when the problem has been reported before,
- no matter if the previous report has been already resolved or
- not.
-
-If a bug report was marked as *CLOSED* or *VERIFIED* and it turns out
-that this was incorrect, the bug can be changed to the status *ASSIGNED*
-or *NEW*. \ No newline at end of file
