Description Janet Campbell CLA 2007-10-02 16:27:51 EDT 
It would be useful to have IPZilla require that the License field be completed in IPZilla prior to bug approval (meaning a bug is resolved).
Comment 1 Bjorn Freeman-Benson CLA 2008-03-14 18:01:10 EDT 
It turns out this is more technically complicated than you might imagine (we want to avoid implementing work flow inside bugzilla code as much as possible). How important is this? Can you (Janet, Sharon, Barb) not just check that the license is specified in the IPzilla before marking it as approved?

I'm going to close this as RESOLVED/WONTFIX. If this is important enough, go ahead and reopen it. If you do, please provide some more description about the workflow you expect to see: does the submitter get a reminder if the license field is not specified? does the user interface show a red x over the resolved state so that J/S/B are reminded not to set the resolved state? Etc.
