Comment 29 for bug 107810

Sorry. I must clarify.

1. Confirms continue to happen /before/ a question reaches the solved state. Confirms may now may happen /after/ the question reaches the solved state. The workflow provides more flexibility to the user to confirm the answer. The assumption is that more answers will be confirmed when we allow the question owner to set the state to solved (and leave a message), then we followup with a notification about choosing a Best Answer if one is appropriate.

2. The [ Mark as best answer ] button is still a submit button. You cannot choose more than one. Questions that have many partial answers, or multiple correct answer are mired is ambiguity. I think this still needs to be solved, and spec may be required.
