Hi Zach,
I noticed that you introduced BUGREPORTED on Android blueprints for the work items. It raised a couple of questions:
- what does BUGREPORTED means ?
When David Zinmann and I were going through each WI and closing out 11.09, a few BPs were done, except for one or two issues. These issues were bugs, so instead of filing a new WI in 11.10 we just marked the WI as BUGREPORTED and linked the bug to the 11.09. BUGREPORTED seemed to unambiguously mark a hand off between the BP tracking and the bug system.
- do we need to update
https://wiki.linaro.org/Process/WorkItemsHowto#Work_items_in_the_whiteboard ?
I think we should. BUGREPORTED seemed to fill a void as David and I were going through each item that the other fields didn't. For reference:
TODO empty string, INPROGRESS Item is expected to be done by the end of the cycle INPROGRESS By default, this is an alias for TODO, but teams can choose to track it separately. BLOCKED Item is still expected to be done by end of cycle, but cannot move forward due to issues outside assignees control DONE POSTPONED POSTPONE item will not be done this cycle
The whiteboard work items are parsed to update status.linaro.org so I guess these work items are simply skipped.
