fixVersions in jira

Hello team,

would it be a problem for anyone if we start a new process of not
setting a fixVersion like 1.3.12 but setting such specific version only
when we actually fix or are (almost) sure to be able to fix the issue
before the release?

This is to ease the release process by having not to update every time a
bunch of issues for fixVersion.

The process I'm proposing is:

- fixVersion = 1.4
- fix it
- fixVersion = 1.3.x

If no objections, can you please take care of your own issues by
removing 1.3.13 and leaving 1.4?

By having 1.4 will have it showing up in the Oak board anyhow.

Cheers
Davide

+1. That's how I've been handling the issues assigned to me for a while 
now.

Well, that would essentially triple the number of tickets for me, and 
will make it much harder later on to find what fix went where and when...

If the backport is part of the issue no you can't. If the backport is
difficult you can always mark the issue itself as resolved for 1.3 and
open a separate ticket for the backporting.

So far the practice some of us follow is to add label
candidate_oak_1_0 or candidate_oak_1_2. See [1] for some earlier
discussion around this

So what's the correct JIRA state for something that has been fixed in 
1.3.x, which is intended to be backported to 1.2, but hasn't been 
backported yet? Can I still set that to "resolved"?

This is VERY important. As main release manager this is the only way I
have to understand if a release should be blocked waiting on something
or not. Normally is not an issue for the unstable cuts but it is when
dealing with patch releases (stables. Not as in horses ;)).

I will proceed de-scheduling all 1.3.x that are not resolved and set 1.4
if missing.

+1 - Setting the next release as fixVersion for blockers makes sense.
For all other issues setting the fixVersion once it is fixed seems
more sensible.

+1 to the idea. Additionally, we can probably setup a query to find issues
marked resolved in 1.4 while releasing and set fixForVersion according to
release being prepared.
