Rawhide Rebase Warning to Package Maintainers--DONE

Greetings

I hope everyone is well. With the worst of the “snowpocalypse" behind us 
(here in the Northern Hemisphere) and the branching of Fedora 13, there
is a bit of ‘spring cleaning’ the the bugzappers need to do.  This
e-mail is designed to
let you know about the upcoming bugzilla changes happening around March 9, 2010
(Rawhide bug rebase) and what you need to do, if anything.

We will be automatically changing the version all rawhide bugs to Fedora 13.
This will result in regular bugs reported against rawhide during the Fedora 13
development cycle being changed to version ‘13' instead of their
current assignment,
‘rawhide’.   This is to align with the branching of Fedora 13 from
rawhide and to more
accurately tell where in the lineage of releases the bug was last reported.

Note that this procedure does not apply to bugs that are against component
‘Package Review’ or bugs that have the ‘FutureFeature’ or ‘Tracking’
keywords set.
They will stay open as rawhide bugs indefinitely.

If you do not want your bugs changed to version ‘13‘, add the
FutureFeature keyword.
If you need help changing a large amount of bugs manually, we’d be
glad to help.
Stop by #fedora-bugzappers on irc.freenode.net and we’ll help you.

Added Comment

This message is a reminder that Fedora 11 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 11.  It is Fedora's policy to close all
bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained.  At that time
this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 
'version' of '11'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 11's end of life.

Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that 
we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 11 is end of life.  If you 
would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it 
against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this 
bug to the applicable version.  If you are unable to change the version, 
please add a comment here and someone will do it for you.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events.  Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.

The process we are following is described here:

Fedora 11 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2010-06-25. Fedora 11 is 
no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further 
security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of 
Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
