[jsdl-wg] Tracker status values proposal

This is a procedural proposal about the specification tracker settings:

At the moment the tracker artifact status are the gridforge default:
	open, pending, closed.

These cannot be changed but new values can be defined. I propose to
augment them with the following values:
	resolved, fixed, deferred.

The meaning of these values would be as follows:

Open: the issue has been proposed by a member but not yet
	accepted by the WG.

Pending: the issue has been accepted and is still pending
	resolution by the WG

Resolved: The WG has decided and accepted a resolution, but the
	actions are still pending

Fixed: The editor has completed the proposed actions, but the
	actions are awaiting verification.

Closed: The issue has been resolved and is reflected in the
	 work products of the WG. The completion of the changes
	must be reported by the primary editor and verified by
	the secondary editor (or other WG member).

Deferred: The WG has decided that the issue has some merit
	but that it should not be addressed in the upcoming
	revision of the spec.

And deferred items would later be moved to the post-v1 tracker.

Note that all this is not my invention. I am 'stealing' it from the
ogsa-wg trackers. (And those were in turn 'stolen' from the ogsi ones or
other places ....)
