Sorry for the lateness of this email!

As discussed at the meeting last week, consensus seems to be roughly in
favor of option #2 above. So, let's make that the formal proposal.

Are there any serious objections to proceeding with option #2 - going
forward, bugs will be marked as having been triaged with the use of a
keyword, rather than changing status from NEW to ASSIGNED?

If not, we'll push ahead and make that the new official policy. Thanks!
