Here's how Linden Lab uses the workflow status and resolution states:


; Open : An issue that belongs to the Assignee to resolve. The Assignee may fix the issue, or bounce the issue back to the person who reported it by marking it "Resolved" (see below).
; Pending : Initial state when an issue/ticket is created. All issues in "Pending" will be reviewed and triaged.


; In Progress : How a developer signals to everyone that they're working on the issue.
; Acknowledged : When an issue has been imported to an internal Linden Lab project, it will be marked as Acknowledged.


; Reopened : Same as "Open". Even though it was closed before, it's now reported as a problem that ''still'' needs attention.
; Fix Pending : When the imported issue has passed QA internally, then the public issue will change to Fix Pending. The bug is fixed in a version of the code that should soon be publicly available.
 
; Released : When the imported issue has been released (when it's marked as Closed), then the public issue will be marked as Released and the Resolution Status = Fixed.
 
; Closed : When the Reporter agrees the issues is fixed in Production, s/he should mark the issue as Closed.


; Resolved : An implicit assignment back to the reporter of the issue. It's not closed yet, but rather in a state of limbo that depends on the resolution. It's up to the Reporter to decide whether to reopen an issue, or close it.

Status

Here's how Linden Lab uses the workflow status and resolution states:

Pending
Initial state when an issue/ticket is created. All issues in "Pending" will be reviewed and triaged.
Acknowledged
When an issue has been imported to an internal Linden Lab project, it will be marked as Acknowledged.
Fix Pending
When the imported issue has passed QA internally, then the public issue will change to Fix Pending. The bug is fixed in a version of the code that should soon be publicly available.
Released
When the imported issue has been released (when it's marked as Closed), then the public issue will be marked as Released and the Resolution Status = Fixed.
Closed
When the Reporter agrees the issues is fixed in Production, s/he should mark the issue as Closed.
Resolved
An implicit assignment back to the reporter of the issue. It's not closed yet, but rather in a state of limbo that depends on the resolution. It's up to the Reporter to decide whether to reopen an issue, or close it.
Needs More Info (Resolution Status = Incomplete)
The issue lacks actionable information. Add the info or it CAN'T be investigated.
Cannot Reproduce (Resolution Status = Incomplete)
Following the stated steps does NOT show the problem. Please provide a solid description of how to reproduce the problem, otherwise it's like finding Bigfoot. Issues that can't be reproduced will eventually be closed.
Deferred (Resolution Status = Incomplete)
Support Issue
The issue does NOT belong in the Issue Tracker, and needs to be handled through the Support Portal.
Won't Finish
The assignee or Linden Lab doesn't reasonably believe this issue should or will be fixed.
Duplicate
There's another issue about the same problem/idea.
Expected Behavior
This is NOT a bug and functions by design see this.
Under Advisement
An issue that's about policy, instead of a technical bug. This status shows that the issue has been viewed and is being discussed by Linden Lab.
Misfiled
This issue doesn't belong in the Issue Tracker. Often, these are afoul of our rules.
Closed
The final resting place. It's done!

After an issue gets Linden attention, you can follow along.
