Apparently the idea to rename the Priority field value from "Lowest" in Bugzilla to "Needs Volunteer" in Phabricator created more confusion than expected. I am sorry for that - wasn't intended.
To fix that, there are two questions that welcome input in https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T78617 :
1) Our Phabricator currently offers six levels of prioritization. See https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Phabricator/Project_management#Priority_level... Do project maintainers / devs really feel a need for planning to differentiate between "low" priority and one level below that? Or could we reduce our six levels with five levels?
2) If there is a need for a level below "low": Let's rename "Needs Volunteer" back to "Lowest" (Looking at the proposed names in T78617, "Lowest" seems to be the least confusing term / smallest evil.)
If you feel like helping make a decision by adding some *additional* arguments based on your experience, please raise your voice in T78617 after reading the existing comments and arguments in that task.
Thank you for your help! andre
I like that volunteer flag, please keep it.

Let me repeat what I wrote below: "If you feel like helping make a decision by adding some *additional* arguments based on your experience, please raise your voice in T78617 after reading the existing comments and arguments in that task."
Thanks. ;) andre

I'd be fine with just 5. I think anything below "normal" signifies that nobody's going to work on it, I don't think we need two degrees to differentiate here.
- If there is a need for a level below "low": Let's rename "Needs
Volunteer" back to "Lowest" (Looking at the proposed names in T78617, "Lowest" seems to be the least confusing term / smallest evil.)
This would be my second choice. "Needs volunteer" isn't clear to everyone as we've seen.

Patch to change 'Needs Volunteer' back to 'Lowest' < https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/192205/%3E has six +1s but nobody's +2'd it. (I would but I don't have +2 in that repo.)
Do we have enough consensus to continue on with this change or are we still collecting feedback on https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T78617?
