Chats with Fabrice and Tamura-san suggest that adding a few more Priorities could help us self-track. Me, I'd start with adding a "Normal" Priority and making it the default. That might even be enough.</p> INFRA-134

Add more issue priorities?

That said, I was bothered by not having a non-judgmental, normal priority, and agree with others that it is nice to be able to indicate rough importance without immediately hitting Critical or Trivial.</p> <p>I totally agree with <a href="https://pfspipe.ipmu.jp/jira/secure/ViewProfile.jspa?name=cloomis" class="user-hover" rel="cloomis">cloomis</a> and want to point importance of having "non-judgemental" one. What is the best number of selection was actually not in my mind, but I feel 5 is not huge...</p> <p>All, is it fine to close this ticket to have 'normal' priority with setting as default? We seem to have different opinions on how much +/- levels we should have, but do we agree to have non-judgemental 'normal'?</p> <p>no comment over a half year, closing this ticket with the current configuration.</p> Development Rank 0|ii0293: Reviewers rhl
