Ok everyone! We are at "world trac domination" status. We now have a Severity field for which I used the same name from the old Priority field (since we all know semantically what they mean, I kept them). The priorities have been rename like above. Happy traccing! Cheers! David P.S For now, when you open a ticket, there are no default for both since there is a bug in trac that doesn't allow me to change it. I've pinged a sysadmin so hopefully will be resolved soon. > > This could get confusing for some tickets after that but at least we can > transition towards using the Severity field from now on. > > Anyone object or think it's a bad bad idea? > > This is very little work for lots of benefits so I don't want to get > into a massive reorg. or bike-shedding the naming convention.
