[Python-Dev] About resolution “accepted” on the tracker

[Éric Araujo]

Hi everyone

Raymond Hettinger noticed on the tracker that there are different
interpretations of the “accepted” resolution:

> Traditionally it denotes an approved patch, not a agreement that the
> bug is valid.

Daniel Stutzbach and I are (were) two users of the second meaning.  It’s
more useful to follow Raymond’s meaning, so that a simple query can find
all accepted patches that are awaiting commit.

I don’t remember if I took up this use from R. David Murray or someone
else, so I thought I’d redirect the message to python-dev so that all
triagers can see it.  Forward to python-list as you see fit, I’m not
subscribed there.

Regards
