Comment 3 for bug 403554

Joe should get karma for creating the release from the milestone, but registry does not award karma at this time. I think making the release is a spearate issue. In the bugs domain the release manager gets karma for the importance change, and stautes invalid and confirmed. (yes, read that carfuly. release managers use triaged, and Joe does not get credit for that.)

I think the bug's bugfixed karma action should go to the bug assignee because he was responsible for doing the extra work of planning, meetings, reviews, etc.

If the bug has no assignee, then it should go to the user user changing the status. This allows the release mangager to assign and close a bug to give credit to users who fixed secondary bugs while working on the primary bug.
