[yocto] VERIFIED vs CLOSED in yocto bugzilla

[Serban, Laurentiu]

Hello,

I submit to your attention the following issue related to Yocto project's bugzilla:

Which is the most appropriate end for a the lifecycle of a bugzilla issue: VERIFIED or CLOSED?
Currently the bug lifecycle final point is VERIFIED and the status CLOSED is not used. Setting a bug to CLOSED after it was VERIFIED has no impact on the lifecycle itself as the bug can be reopened anyway.

My proposal is the following: keep VERIFIED as the final point of the bug lifecycle and use the status CLOSED for the bug only after the 1.3 release, if the regression testing for the bug is ran and passed.
So after the 1.3 release the ideal situation is that all the bugs related to it with previous status VERIFIED are CLOSED.

Waiting for your opinion on this,
Thank you,
