Thanks -- that makes sense, but we have some change-resistant folks
here who hate ESP but are <br>
deeply attached to their current priority scheme (which was an addon to
ESP also!) such that to get them<br>
into Bugzilla I have to deliver this.<br>

<pre wrap="">Mark,
Typically, rather than expanding priorities, users find that
implementing priority in combination with severity, target milestone and
deadline bring combinations that communicate more information than
priority can alone. Having said that, it's possible to change the list
of available priorities, but from practical experience, using it without
the other fields mentioned above tends to add more confusion than help
reach goals.

[<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="mailto:developers-owner@bugzilla.org">mailto:developers-owner@bugzilla.org</a>] On Behalf Of Mark McWiggins

Subject: Anybody working on expanded priorities?
Hello All,
My company currently uses the terrible program ESP for defect
tracking
and I would like to move
to Bugzilla. However, our company is set up to use a more
fine-grained
priority model with numbers
not just P1 to P5 but more like 1 to 1000.
Is anybody else already working on such a modification? If not I am
interested in doing this. Please advise.
Thanks much -- the bleeding-edge version looks great!
