<br><br>Dear developers,<br>
<br>
Launchpad has both the concepts of target for a release and milestone<br>
targets, which different groups use for different purposes. At UDS<br>
Prague we held a session on updating the procedures used for tracking<br>
Release Critical bugs to ensure clarity around how these settings are<br>
used in the context of a release.<br>
<br>
The updated policy is at <a href="https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RCBugTargetting" target="_blank">https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RCBugTargetting</a><br>
In brief it states:<br>
<br>
* Bugs are considered Release Critical when they are targeted for a release<br>
_and_ have priority High or above<br>
<br>
* Release Critical bugs should all have designated assignees responsible<br>
for fixing the bug<br>
<br>
* Bugs that are targeted for a release but have priorities Medium or below<br>
are targets of opportunity that should be fixed if possible but will not<br>
block the release<br>
<br>
* Bug targeted for a release _and_ milestoned are considered essential for<br>
the success of that particular milestone<br>
<br>
* Milestones on non-targeted bugs can be used by developers to track their<br>
own work<br>
<br>
<br>
Please read these guidelines and help us apply them consistently. This<br>
will ensure that Release Critical bugs show up on the appropriate<br>
Launchpad tracking pages and get the attention they require. Thank you.<br>
<br>
