[jboss-as7-dev] How to verify a patches for non-public AS

[Thomas Diesler]

Hi Darran,

this does not work. There is no living soul in QA that could verify my patch and guarantee that it works for the reporter. For good reason, we distinguish between Resolved/Closed - only the reporter of an issue can make the transition from Resolved to Closed. 

I'd say this process is broken.

I suggest we do all work in jboss-as until an issue is not only Resolved but also Closed. Closed issues can be picked up by QA and the associated commits cherry-picked and whatever other voodoo they do in their non-public systems. 

As it stands now the reporter has to wait until the next EAP release before he can know whether his issue is truly fixed. That is obviously broken, isn't it?

cheers
