Jira blocker status used for release

[Jacques Le Roux]

Hi,

The Jira blocker status can be used when something really blocks OFBiz to start. There are certainly other cases where it can be used. I propose a
peculiar one: when an issue blocks a release.

That's why I changed the status of OFBIZ-10012

If we agree I'll document that in our "OFBiz Committers Roles and Responsibilities
<https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OFBIZ/OFBiz+Committers+Roles+and+Responsibilities>" page

Done,

I wonder when we should recommend to use Critical, any ideas?

Hi Jacques

Blocker - the fault stops the system itself from starting or working. It
simply *must* be fixed as soon as possible. The system cannot be released
in this state.
Critical - A feature of critical importance is faulty. A workaround is
possible, or a quick fix could be applied after release. While you usually
would not release with a critical fault present, it's conceivable.
