| > A flag is a kind of status that can be set on bugs or attachments |
| to indicate that the bugs/attachments are in a certain state. |
| Each installation can define its own set of flags that can be set |
| on bugs or attachments. |
| </P |
| ><P |
| > If your installation has defined a flag, you can set or unset that flag, |
| and if your administrator has enabled requesting of flags, you can submit |
| a request for another user to set the flag. |
| </P |
| ><P |
| > To set a flag, select either "+" or "-" from the drop-down menu next to |
| the name of the flag in the "Flags" list. The meaning of these values are |
| flag-specific and thus cannot be described in this documentation, |
| but by way of example, setting a flag named "review" to "+" may indicate |
| that the bug/attachment has passed review, while setting it to "-" |
| may indicate that the bug/attachment has failed review. |
| </P |
| ><P |
| > To unset a flag, click its drop-down menu and select the blank value. |
| </P |
| ><P |
| > If your administrator has enabled requests for a flag, request a flag |
| by selecting "?" from the drop-down menu and then entering the username |
| of the user you want to set the flag in the text field next to the menu. |
| </P |
| ><P |
| > A set flag appears in bug reports and on "edit attachment" pages with the |
| abbreviated username of the user who set the flag prepended to the |
| flag name. For example, if Jack sets a "review" flag to "+", it appears |
| as Jack: review [ + ] |
| </P |
| ><P |
| > A requested flag appears with the user who requested the flag prepended |
| to the flag name and the user who has been requested to set the flag |
| appended to the flag name within parentheses. For example, if Jack |
| asks Jill for review, it appears as Jack: review [ ? ] (Jill). |
| </P |
| ><P |
| > You can browse through open requests made of you and by you by selecting |
| 'My Requests' from the footer. You can also look at open requests limited |
| by other requesters, requestees, products, components, and flag names from |
| this page. Note that you can use '-' for requestee to specify flags with |
| 'no requestee' set. |
