[yt-dev] Fwd: ALERT/APOLOGY: Milestone changes on BB Issues

[Kacper Kowalik]

Hi,
for all those people that enforced "From: Cameron -> /dev/null" due to
recent spambomb, I'm forwarding the email shedding some light on what
happened. I'm partial responsible for it too, since it was I who
suggested to use "Milestone" keyword on bb's issue tracker.
Sorry for that!
Cheers,
Kacper

Everyone:

Several of the developers at the yt workshop are reclassifying the
bitbucket issues to better "tag" them for future handling.  We decided to
use the "Milestone" field as a way of triaging these into several
categories:  easy, moderate, difficult, longterm, and waiting for future
development.  As part of this, we (I) made the dubious decision to remove
the previous numbered milestones because they were redundant with version
as we had been using them.  This has resulted in a HUGE number of emails to
the list for all of the milestone modifications, which you have undoubtedly
received.  For that I want to personally apologize, since we were unaware
this would be the behavior even on closed tickets.

I hope these new milestones will be useful in the future, and again I'm
sorry for all of the spam.

Cameron
