I disagree (see mail about Angstrom usurping bugs.oe.org).
I have yet to come up with a complete plan how things should work (one
idea fell apart because a partner had to retract their offer). But
let's discuss this piece since it came up: when to consider a normal bug
closed.
The above are really two or more issues.
a) fix the problem itself
b) propagate the fix to A*
c) propagate the fix to PS Distro
IMO, any bug fixed in .dev ought to be closed. If it needs to be
backported or released to A*, then a separate ticket should be opened
(one issue, one bug, remember!). The cloning function from bugzilla can
easily be used for that.
We just face the problem that - unlike launchpad - bugzilla is incapable
of tracking the status according to project for the same issue (open for
ubuntu, closed in debian for example)
