[Qgis-developer] Trac priorities

[Tim Sutton]

Hi all

In the absence of further feedback on this thread I have gone ahead
with the proposed changes. In order to accommodate John Tulls request
and only keep three priority levels I included enhancement as part of
'minor'. We now have the following priorities:

Possible Values
-----------------------------------------
critical: causes crash or data corruption
major: does not work as expected
minor: annoyance or enhancement

Many thanks to all who provided feedback.

Regards

Tim
