Launchpad bug workflow change

[Cody Somerville]

I personally think the new status are very appropriate. We always like to
cling to what we know but I honestly believe that these changes will be
beneficial to bug workflow.

Thanks,

Cody A.W. Somerville

P.S. Would it be possible to remove some of the crud in your signature? I
think some would find it inappropriate and, frankly, I find it annoying.
Thanks :)
