22 It just turned out that at least parts of that template seem to be outdated.
23
24 E.g. #3:
25 (3) You decide the [% terms.bug %] belongs to you, but you can't solve it
26 this moment. Accept the [% terms.bug %] by setting the status to
27 [% display_value("bug_status", "IN_PROGRESS") %].
28
29 That was actually meant for when we had the ASSIGNED status for which it would
30 make more sense.
31
32 Again: Don't take it too serious, if it helps to remind you that's fine but
33 ignore anything else.
