Any suggestions?
WONTFIX does sound rude to me, as well. Perhaps 'onholdindefinite' can be used instead, the effective meaning is the same, just the term itself is more polite. It seems that nobody looking at it would think "I'll just wait for a while and surely it'll get fixed.". Instead, anyone needing it would think "If it is to be fixed, it's clear someone has to make a case for it." -ak WONTFIX has a long history in software development. It also does (correctly) state intentionality that 'onholdindefinite' lacks. The intention of WONTFIX is "yes, this is possibly valid, but in the state this ticket is written it is being closed". Using anything else that doesn't close the ticket just lets it hang out as cruft. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django developers" group.
