Re: GitLab migration

 

The main thing I didn’t like in the Launchpad workflow was the “Invalid” tag.  After one of our users spends a lot of time (or even a little) logging a bug, it often gets their back up if you mark it “invalid”.

(In the past I’ve used systems that labelled this either “Not a Bug” or “As Designed”.  The later is probably the least triggering.)

Cheers,
Jeff.

Unfortunately, GitLab doesn't seem to have the same functionality as the Launchpad tracker with respect to issue status and severity. This might be a good time to finalize the earlier work that Nick had started to formalize the issue process and the bug tracker workflow before we transition to the GitLab tracker. That way we can define how we want to do this from the outset. This will probably require some trial and error and discussions to fully work it out.
