Re: [Dhis2-users] dhis version 2.27 is released

 

Hi Timothy

Depending on the severity on the bug, it might be downgraded. The JIRA
issues tracker is not a fast track. We get a lot of bugs/requests coming in
all the time, and we need to prioritise them, and this is especially true
for components that only have 1-2 maintainers.

If there is no response for a substantial amount of time, please feel free
to message us on this list and give the JIRA number, maybe we can either
fast track it, or give a more detailed reasons why we can not easily fix
your bug.
