+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> updated ISOs for Mageia 2 in a few months.
+</I>That's why I have added some exceptions in my bug list.
+
+&gt;&gt;<i> The main problem is that we lose
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> information about the bug's validity in cauldron.
+</I>Indeed
+&gt;<i> Another main problem is we don't know whether they're still valid or
+</I>&gt;<i> not. We don't ask reporters every month whether the issue is still
+</I>&gt;<i> there. We ping bugs after 3 months, if nothing happened to the report,
+</I>&gt;<i> but if I don't have time to check whether there is a possibility the
+</I>&gt;<i> bug got fixed, I usually don't ask whether it is still valid.
+</I>
+We could ask at the same time of the change.
+I guess in the future this method will be hard to keep no ? (ping after
+3 months of inactivity)
+That's why, I proposed to close only at the End of Life of the release
+all bugs of the unsupported version, and ask people to upgrade and
+reopen if still valid (fedora do that iirc).
+
+&gt;<i> For me it would be confusing if all cauldron bugs were set to be
+</I>&gt;<i> Mageia 2 stable bugs (too), because when I see that I expect that at
+</I>&gt;<i> least one person reported the bug was valid for mageia 2 stable.
+</I>Indeed, if people don't close bugs after our request it can make false
+positive.
+&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> Of course, for bugs that were filed recently, that will often be the
+</I>&gt;<i> case, but many cauldron bugs were not filed that recently, some date
+</I>&gt;<i> from before mageia 1 release, many from 2 alpha.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> Last time we discussed it on
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> this mailing list, IIRC the conclusion was that we needed to be able
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> to set
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> several releases for the same bug and that a bugzilla update would
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> allow it.
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> Another option would be duplicate every bug for Mageia 2, and link it
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> to the
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> cauldron bug (I guess it's quite safe to decide that the Mageia 2 bug
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> must be
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> blocked by the cauldron bug). It would be my preferred way in fact.
+</I>I have searched on this ml or on -dev an found nothing. :/
+What was the topic ?
+
+For the duplicate bugs, why not but it seems hard to manage.
+&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> I agree, if their validity is checked first.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> I'd like to see that the moment 2 stable is released, all cauldron
+</I>&gt;<i> bugs are pinged and all reporters/commenters are asked to clone the
+</I>&gt;<i> bug for Mageia 2 if it is valid for stable, and set it to depend on
+</I>&gt;<i> the original bug. If it isn't valid for stable, it most probably can't
+</I>&gt;<i> be valid for cauldron anymore, so it would be safe to close them as old.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> I think we'll end up closing a lot of cauldron bugs :)
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> But I think this must be discussed with other packagers too.
+</I>Yep, but better have something where the bugsquad is agree. :)
+&gt;&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> Also, it would be good to have a report about open bugs in cauldron, per
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> component or package or group of packages, in a synthetic view, so
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> that we can
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> have an idea of the quality of the distribution that is to be
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> released (and a
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> report about Mageia 1 too to see how much bugs we fixed, how much we
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> didn't
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> fix, what components have the biggest amount of open bugs, still in a
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> synthetic view... I know, I ask for a lot, and maybe in a few years I
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> will do
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> it myself :))
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> Can you point me to an example of a report in a synthetic view?
+</I>Something like that ?
