85962 - New Keyword for Netscape Branch

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

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

Description

[selmer (gone)]

Starting almost immediately, Netscape will begin marking bugs for inclusion in
the next branch.  After some discussion, it has been decided to use a keyword
for this purpose.  (I've kept the definition generic to facilitate future re-use.)

Keyword = nsBranch

Definition =
Add this keyword to indicate that a bug must be fixed for the next Netscape
Branch.  To tell whether the bug is likely to be fixed *on the trunk* by a
particular milestone, check the Target Milestone setting in the bug.

OK, added the keyword with the definition above.  Seems a little ambiguous so
were the other choices (maybe "fixed by the end of the next Netscape branch"?).
No big deal I guess. 

Steve, you can do a query for all 0.9.2 bugs and add this Keyword in a bulk
"Change several bugs at once" if you need to preserve information that is
currently represented in the Target Milestone.  Or, if there is still triage to
be done you could selectively add it to the bugs as they get bumped out of 0.9.2
TM and into 0.9.3.
