Freezing Bugs

In some cases, the project team may decide that a bug has received as much input as is necessary from the users, and that it this point it would be best to 'freeze' it and disallow any further comments.

User Interface

On the bug page, the project owner and bug supervisor see an extra action link - 'Freeze this bug'. If clicked, the user is taken to a confirmation page, where they can either go back for confirm that they would like to freeze the bug. Once the bug is frozen, the action link changes function to 'unfreezing'.

For all other users, frozen bugs appear just like normal bugs, but the section for adding new comments is removed, and an informational message appears at the top, announcing that this bug is frozen, and no longer accepts new comments.

Schema Changes

Add a new column to the Bug table - frozen, BOOLEAN, which deaults to FALSE.
