> How would you feel about removing/disabling the UPSTREAM resolution, |

|

Right now there is no agreement on what RESOLVED UPSTREAM is supposed to mean, |
| 4 |
and everybody is using it in a different sense. Nothing in this thread |
| 5 |
indicates any effective measures to improve that. |

So, yes I'm for removing it. |

My advice for serious upstream bugs that Gentoo can't do much about is to |
| 10 |
1) keep the Gentoo bug open until it's fixed |
| 11 |
2) add a whiteboard note like "[tracking upstream]" |
| 12 |
3) and linking the upstream bug report in URL |
| 13 |
If there is no upstream bug, make one or ask the reporter to make one and link |
| 14 |
to it (resolved needinfo in the meantime if needed). |
