[Scilab-Dev] Re : Re: Closing bugs

[Clément DAVID]

Hello,

I agree with Samuel, "WONTFIX" should only be used when this is not related anymore (or never was). For example, I close as WONTIFX bugs related to custom packaging of Scilab (for Linux distribution, specific builds, etc..) or bug related to user very-specific needs that will break general behavior (for example specific shortcuts that will break on other platforms).

Cheers,

IMO, "RESOLVED" => "FIXED" shall be used.

Bug-reporting-fixing is a flow.

"RESOLVED" => "WONTFIX" shall be used when the bug won't reasonably never be fixed, or when is was an actual one but is no longer relevant (for instance an unfixed bug about a removed feature).

"RESOLVED" => "WORKSFORME" shall be used when no one was able to reproduce the bug on any platform with the given Scilab version/family, despite the poster has posted some relevant information to reproduce it, and a quite long period elapsed since the report was posted (some bugs are hardware-dependent, and other users that have the same hardware can confirm the bug, if the report is not closed too early).

My two cents
Samuel

Since "RESOLVED/WORKSFORME" is irrelevant, as it works for a
*subsequent* version.
