Bugs and Enhancement discussions

Introduction

Sometimes, patches or bugs requires some strategic discussion to define the best way to do something. This discussion can be purely technical, or functionnal.

A new bug status "in discussion" has been created in 2011 december, to identify those bugs.

On the 2012 february IRC meeting, we decided the following workflow for those bugs:

• start a wiki page explaining what is to be discussed, what's the problem, what are the possible solutions, with pros and cons
  
• send a mail to koha-devel and koha mailing lists to let everybody know there's a discussion that started
  
• let ppl discuss (on the mailing lists or on the wiki) of the possible solutions, pros and cons, until the next IRC meeting, but not less than one full week
  
• at the next IRC meeting,
  - if the discussion (on the wiki or koha-devel) result in a general agreement, nothing specific need to be made (no vote needed)
  - if the discussion result in a balanced situation, organize a vote.
  
• Ppl that can't attend the next IRC meeting can express their vote on the wiki, it will be counted during the IRC meeting
• After the IRC meeting, report the conclusions to the mailing lists, and make the decision real by updating the bugs !
