Administrando tareas y defectos: Software Triage

Triage es un termino medico que tiene el siguiente significado:
Triage is a process of prioritizing patients based on the severity of their condition so as to treat as many as possible when resources are insufficient for all to be treated immediately.
En la ingeniería del software el termino tiene el siguiente significado:
Triage is now also applied in system development. Requirements and design options are triagedto avoid wasting effort on ideas that will obviously never succeed. At some point in the software development lifecycle, regardless of which model you use, we have to make some tough decisions. What defects do we fix? Which should we let go? How do we decide? Triage is one way!
Descubrí este termino hace poco en la lista de hitos de la pagina oficial de Trac. Resulta que tienen un hito en el cual asignan todas las tareas o defectos (de ahora en mas tickets) que no están planeadas, o no se sabe todavía para que hito deben ser hechas, o si vale la pena completarlas o deben ser canceladas. Ellos documentaron el proceso para aplicar 'triage' sobre los tickets.
