This issue has been marked WONTFIX which has been accepted by the reporter.
Shouldn't it be closed in bugzilla?

Usually I mark a bug as resolved and then ask
the initial submitter to verify and then close
the bug if it also works for him.

my 2 cents

Yes, but the thing is commons doesn't have a QA dept.

I believe there's a script that automatically does this. Certainly
emails regularly get posted to the dev list which just fix the subject
line, and they always come from one person [whose name I can't
remember]. If it's being done by hand they are very persistent...

You are suggesting modifying the script that generates the "Bug report
for Commons" emails to ignore RESOLVED issues for commons? I would
definitely agree with that.

Simon

FYI, the general concensus with the bug tracking software that I have
used (to name one example: the Apache Infrastructure JIRA) is that
once the developers think they have fixed the bug/implemented the
change, they set the bug/CR to RESOLVED. Then the person that made the
entry (for open source projects anyway) verifies that the bug is no
longer there/the change has been correctly implemented. He/she then
sets the status to VERIFIED (if supported by the bug tracking system)
or to some other status if the solution is not (yet) appropriate. If
the status is VERIFIED, the developers then can CLOSE the bug.
Likewise, for regressions, the bug than can be REOPENED etc.
This way, a large part of the release notes can be created fully
automatically by entering every bug, change request, improvement,
feature request into the bug tracking software (even if found and
immediately fixed by a developer).

regards,
Tom

Here's a snippet from the bugzilla help regarding the STATUS of an 
issue. It explains it well.

RESOLVED
     A resolution has been taken, and it is awaiting verification by QA.
     From here bugs are either re-opened and become REOPENED, are marked
     VERIFIED, or are closed for good and marked CLOSED.
VERIFIED
     QA has looked at the bug and the resolution and agrees that the
     appropriate resolution has been taken. Bugs remain in this state
     until the product they were reported against actually ships, at
     which point they become CLOSED.
CLOSED
     The bug is considered dead, the resolution is correct. Any zombie
     bugs who choose to walk the earth again must do so by becoming
     REOPENED.

Actually I wasn't searching for these using a filter at all. When I was 
going through "Bug report for Commons [2005/07/25]", I was adding 
[component] in front of the ones that was missing it. When I looked at 
one of the issues at hand, it looked like it was "all done". So I 
checked the releasenotes for that commons component and indeed it had 
been both "resolved" and "shipped".

The reason for commenting on the issues was that they really shouldn't 
show up in the periodic "Bug report for Commons" e-mails. I figured they 
won't if they are closed.

Now I tried searching in bugzilla. You can specify Status 
[open|closed|all], Product and Words.

First try:
Status: open, Product: Commons and Words [beanutils]
Do *not* list the issues that I commented on

Second try:
Status: closed, Product: Commons and Words [beanutils]
Do list the issues that I commented on

So I now think that, from a bugzilla point of view, the issues can 
remain at their current status. But the "Bug report" e-mails, on the 
other hand, probably needs some tweaking.

For open bugs there is a radio button for "resolve bug", with a dropdown
allowing FIXED, INVALID, WONTFIX etc. No separate "close" option. 

But these entries that Dennis has noted have quite a different set of
options: 
  LEAVE AS WONTFIX (or VERIFIED FIXED or whatever the status is)
  REOPEN
  CLOSE

It looks like the former are displayed for "open" bugs while the latter
options are displayed for bugs that are already marked RESOLVED.

Maybe Bugzilla uses RESOLVED to mean it has been fixed in version
control while CLOSED means that the issue no longer needs to be tracked
(eg a release with that fix has now been issued)? If so, then that makes
sense for corporates and maybe places like Mozilla but commons
components don't traditionally track things like that AFAIK.

Anyway, Dennis, how are you coming across these entries? Are you
searching with everything selected in the STATUS list except CLOSED? If
so I would just suggest excluding RESOLVED too. Certainly on the
projects I'm aware of everyone just uses the "resolve bug" option in
bugzilla [which presumably marks things as RESOLVED not CLOSED] then
never looks at that entry again.

Regards,

Simon
