- Summary changed from Is TracTickets diagram correct? to Correct TracTickets diagram (reassign -> new)
Well, I personally think that reassigned tickets should be kept as assigned (not be reverted to new), but there's already a NewWorkflow proposal (#869) that keeps the same behavior as today.
The conclusion is that the TracTickets diagram isn't correct - the arrow points in the wrong direction, so I'm changing this ticket's title. Further discussion about the workflow should be directed to the right ticket.

I've uploaded a new image and replaced the old one in TracTickets, so I'd like someone to review it and close the ticket.

The proposed diagram is more correct, I'm not sure it's less confusing though,
because of the "assigned -> (reassign) -> new" transition, which
seems at first counter-intuitive. But that's not the diagram's fault.
This is because "assigned" state would have been better named "accepted",
as the transition "new -> (accept) -> assigned" suggests.
Also the "assigned" and "reopened" states are different ones,
and the transition "new -> (reassign) -> new" is still missing.
See also the related discussion about accept/assigned/accepted on #2045.
In milestone:0.11, with the WorkFlow merge, we will probably pick a
better/clearer default scheme (at least rename "assigned" to "accepted").
But the particular (reassign -> new) issue that this ticket wanted to
address is fixed, yes.



Can I make a comment to this:
The picture in the documentation makes sense. A ticket should only be NEW, if it was created. With the first change it must leave the status NEW.
If I reassign a new person, the ticket is not used, it is only new for the assigned person. I request, that the status shall be (re)assign.
