[Koha-devel] Koha 17.05 Release Notes - Draft One ( 2nd attempt ; )

[Kyle Hall]

I don't know if I want to remove the 'plumbing' bugs altogether. Simply
having them there shows the healthy development Koha goes thought. That
being said I think the idea of moving those to the bottom in favor of
highlighting the types of bugs that librarians can visually see and
experience is a pretty good idea.
