547475 - Bespin versions, 2010-02 edition

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(bugzilla.mozilla.org :: Administration, task)

Description

[Gordon P. Hemsley [:GPHemsley]]

A number of requests regarding version and target version numbers.

1) Version 0.4.6 was never released, so it can be removed.
2) Version numbers 0.4.3, 0.4.4, and 0.4.5 are out of order with the rest.
3) Add Version 0.7.0 after 0.6.2.
4) Move Version 'unspecified' to the bottom of the list, if possible.
5) Move Target '---' to be between the 0.6.2 and 0.7.0 Targets. [Already done by gavin.]
6) Remove Target 'Future'.

That's all for now. I expect Kevin will be back early next month to request more 0.7.x- and 0.8.x-related changes.

1) The version 0.4.6 of product Bespin has been deleted. 
3) The version 0.7.0 of product Bespin has been created. 
5) Changes to the milestone ---  have been saved: * Sortkey updated to 621

Re: 2) and 4), I don't think there's a way to control Version sorting.

Re: 6), that would mean changing all 63 bugs with that Target to "---". Are you sure you want that?

Strange. I'll have to check on that with the Bugzilla people and see if we need a RFE filed.

Oh, I did a bad search before. I thought it was empty. But yeah, all the bugs targeted to Future are old bugs from before the Bespin reboot, and none have really been touched since November, August, or earlier.

versions are sorted alphabetically, it's always been assumed that people would deal with it.

adding an extra sort field would mostly increase work for us, while it occasionally could be useful.

On show_bug.cgi, sure, but not on query.cgi, apparently.

Comment 5

Marking this FIXED, because I think I convinced Gordon IRC that 6) was more trouble than it's worth :)

oh yeah, query.cgi is strange (and i'm fairly certain there's a bug for that)
