[mdt-papyrus.dev] Governance - SysML 1.1 editors - semantics of ASSIGNED

Hi Papyrus developers,

(This email focuses on the SysML 1.1 editors, although the question might
be considered more general)

As mentioned in Bug 427378, I noticed that there are quite a (whole) lot
of SysML 1.1 bugs in the ASSIGNED state (and have been in that state for
ages).  I¹m not sure what the (agreed) meaning of assigned is in the
papyrus project, but to the end user it is currently _very_ unclear if
anything is going to happen to a bug in the ASSIGNED state. [*]

My personal definition of ASSIGNED would be that work is going to start on
that bug in a to-be-defined-but-fixed period starting from the moment the
bug is in the assigned state.

For instance, my _impression_ is that nothing is going to happen to (all)
the (non-critical) SysML 1.1 bugs unless somebody stands up and says
he/she wants to fund them, right?

Wouldn't it be more honest/realistic to either put these bugs in a
NEW/CONFIRMED state (or close these bug as CLOSED WONTFIX)?

BR,

Klaas

forum posts questions such as
