[cdt-dev] Verifying bug fixes in two streams

[Brent Nicolle <bnicolle@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi CDT Dev,

I've seen a few defects fixed in both Head 2.0 stream and in 1.2.1 stream. 
 What is the intended process for verifying these defects?  Are submitters 
expected to verify on both streams, or just whichever one is more 
convenient?  Would it be wise to replicate the defects when they are going 
to be patched on two streams (because verification may happen at different 
times, and with different results)?  In fact, would it be wiser to submit 
patches on each stream under a separate defect (because the patch may be 
different for each stream)?  Or am I needlessly asking for more automated 
Bugzilla email?

On a side note, is there a canonical list of defects which 1.2.1 is 
intended to address?

Cheers,

- Brent
