Description Pau Amma 2022-06-05 17:08:30 UTC

I think that:
- what it calls "needs triage" is currently called "new"
- what it calls "in discussion" is currently called "in progress"
- what it calls "patch ready" and "needs MFC") no longer exist or aren't used currently (although see the patch-ready for the former)
- what it calls "issue resolved" is currently "closed" with resolution "fixed"

but I can't swear to it.

While there, maybe review the rest of it for currency.

Spotted while rooting around for when/why to MFC info.

Thanks for the report. Known issue for a while, hadn't tracked it in Bugzilla, thank you for reporting. 

Happy to address these issues via an issue management page on the wiki, from which a correct/accurate summary can be added on the website

Link me? I'll see what I can do beyond my educated guesses above.
