+<PRE>In order to differentiate update candidates awaiting testing and those awaiting
+packager action, we will now assign the bug reports to the packagers when we
+are waiting for their input.
+
+When doing this, we need to add qa-bugs in CC to the bug report to make sure
+we will still get notifications about it, and that above all it still shows in
+the saved search :
+<A HREF="https://bugs.mageia.org/buglist.cgi?cmdtype=dorem&amp;remaction=run&amp;namedcmd=waiting%20for%20QA%20test&amp;sharer_id=22">https://bugs.mageia.org/buglist.cgi?cmdtype=dorem&amp;remaction=run&amp;namedcmd=waiting%20for%20QA%20test&amp;sharer_id=22</A>
+
+This way the state of an update candidate can be identified from the
+information in the bug report:
+- assigned to qa-bugs and has the validated keyword =&gt; ready to push
+- assigned to qa-bugs without the validated keyword =&gt; update candidate that
+needs testing
+- not assigned to qa-bugs but has qa-bugs in CC =&gt; update candidate awaiting
+packager input
+
+In the above saved search, sorting by Assignee will allow to separate updates
+needing testing and updates awaiting packager input. Maybe in the future we
+can split it in 2 different saved searches if we find it useful.
+
+I see 2 options :
+- either systematically assign to the packager when a tester encounters a
+difficulty or needs more information
+- or only when we have been waiting for more than 2 days
+
+The first option could be more heavy but the second requires people from QA
+and/or triage to regularly update the bug reports. As we already do it, I
+would choose option 2.
+
+Which option do you prefer ?
+
+Once we have decided I will try to remember to send this piece of information
+to the mageia-dev mailing and to update the wiki. If I forget, please remind
+it to me :)
+
+Best regards
