Hi, Thanks Lubos for starting this! So on top of Lubos’s changes I took the liberty of updating In https://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Bug_definitions, since the Prio for openSUSE Bugzilla products is at the discretion of the maintainer, the list of Prio had to be updated to reflect on what the SLE Release Managers actually used. Also I think the following https://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Most_annoying_bugs and https://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Submitting_bug_reports#Voting_in_Bugzilla could be removed as no one (neither the openSUSE community or the SLE Release Manager?!) is looking or using them? What do you think?

I've had a discussion about Bugzilla triaging for Leap in the past few days and I'd like to present my proposal and work towards having a final "policy" before the Leap 15.4 Beta release. Where we expect increased amount of bugs from the announced Beta testing effort. Since 15.3 and Closing the Leap Gap we have a set of PUBLIC SUSE Linux Enterprise products which unlike traditional SUSE products are by default accessible by community. Big thanks for Vincent, Marina, Gerald and all who participated on the effort. To keep increasing transparency from what's actually being changed under SLE hood we'd like to utilize these as much as possible. This is also the area where the changes in current policy would take place. In the current proposal, nothing is changing for Leap community packages, where priority is set by bug owner and others respect it. Leap Release Manager could still use SHIP_STOPPER / Blocker flags and adjust severity fields to project the impact of community packages on distribution. So that remains the same. The change is basically only for packages inherited from SUSE Linux Enterprise, where packages would be noew preferably created in PUBLIC SUSE Linux* product family, and proactively moved there from openSUSE Distribution by Leap Release Manager (me). Bugs in PUBLIC SLE product family would be then triaged (setting of priority and ownership) by SLE Release Manager. There as part of the transition or we need to keep the priority on the default P5 which means untriaged. There the priority corresponds with impact on the product and therefore should be set only by SLE RM. Any feedback to proposed changes is highly welcome. Let's polish it together prior 15.4 Beta takes place. So far the initial feedback from individuals was good. Changes are visible here: (perhaps I should have used :talk instead). https://en.opensuse.org/index.php?title=openSUSE%3ASubmitting_bug_reports&type=revision&diff=162474&oldid=161022 https://en.opensuse.org/index.php?title=openSUSE%3ABug_definitions&type=revision&diff=162471&oldid=46259 Also relevant but yet unchaged https://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Bug_reporting_FAQ -- Best regards Lubos Kocman openSUSE Leap Release Manager
