The bugtracker shouldn't be asking this stuff from our users,
but unfortunately it does :(
Just pick something and we'll fix it later if it needs fixing.
It'll be fine.
In this case I'd pick DEFECT, leave the priority at the default
and set the milestone to unscheduled. But that doesn't really matter.
The most important thing is that the issue gets filed in the tracker
so we don't forget about it.
Your support with filing issues will be very much appreciated.
We all have things to do so if the person who reported an issue also files it,
our community as a whole can save some valuable time.
See also http://producingoss.com/en/managing-volunteers.html#delegation
which explains the deeper reasons for why we tend to ask people to perform
tasks. (The short answer is that it's partly about spreading the workload,
and partly about building community bonds).
Thanks,
Stefan
