Re: Managing Gitlab Issues

I'm sorry I was unclear. I’m talking about the Status field of Bugzilla. Not Gerrit labels. With Bugzilla a new bug 
had
(normally) the status ‚Unconfirmed‘ at the beginning. When someone was able to reproduce the issue the bug had the
status ‚Confirmed‘. If something was missing (a capture file for example) the status was ‚Incomplete‘. When someone 
was
working on a fix the status was ‚In Progress‘.
This is currently missing with Gitlab Issues. There is only ‚Open‘ and ‚Closed‘.

Therefore I suggest we use labels to mark the status of an issue.


I still prefer to have some status labels. However as there is no feedback it's seems I'm the only one. :-(


With Bugzilla I (as a normal contributor) was able to set the status of a bug (not limited to my own created ones). 
Also
I was able to correct the classification etc. At the moment I’m not able to do this with Gitlab issues. When we can 
have
a new group to edit/label issues I’m totally fine. 

I'm also not able to add a existing label (enhancement) to an issue created by myself. So it seems there is some setting
denying this.

    * It would make sense to have templates for issues [3]. Has anyone already prepared this? Otherwise I will create
    one and submit a MR?


This would help for sure. Please submit a MR for that.

Will do so.

Templates for FeatureRequest and Bug are active.
