This is the date the bug task was opened, it can be different than the
date the bug was reported since a bug report can have multiple bug
tasks.

This is the date the bug task transitioned to the Confirmed status.

This is the date that the bug task was assigned to someone.

The date the bug task's status transitioned to In Progress.

I'm not positive but this is probably the date the bug task transitioned
to Fix Released.  If you were to provide the bug number of the
particular bug report you are looking at we could confirm this.
