Currently we have these open statuses:

It seems to me many of these are mostly unused making their presence confusing to newcomers. I propose we prune these down to:
New: default for new trackers; ideally this list should be short and regularly looked at. Triaged: it's been looked at by PTL/team member and could be assigned out. Need More Info: can't be worked on without more information In Progress: assignee is working on the ticket. Need Review: upstream PR ready for review Pending Backport: upstream PR merged; backports are pending.
So I've gone ahead and made the above changes. Verified -> New (Sorry, I meant to move this to "Triaged" but hit the wrong status.) Feedback -> New Need Test -> "Fix Under Review" Testing -> "Fix Under Review" Pending Upstream -> "Fix Under Review" "Fix Under Review" is my attempt at finding a better status name than "Needs Review". That's easy to change if anyone has a better suggestion. I saw Matt's note about RGW using "Testing" and "Need Test". I agree with Sage it's easier to track the PR's progress in the PR itself. Keeping the redmine issue status in sync is unnecessary busy work. -- Patrick Donnelly, Ph.D. He / Him / His Senior Software Engineer Red Hat Sunnyvale, CA GPG: 19F28A586F808C2402351B93C3301A3E258DD79D
