Continue In Behavior

The way this is supposed to work is that a new work item should be
created in the original iteration, marked as complete, link the new work
item to the old work item, add a "revised estimate" to the old work item
(reflecting the work that was already completed), and then rescheduling
the new work item for the next iteration.

So it sounds like the only thing going wrong for you is that the new
work item is not being automatically transitioned to "closed". This
does work for me in 3.0. So if it isn't working this way for you, you
could either just manually close the new work item until you upgrade to
3.0, or submit a defect against 2.0.

The continue in function seems confusing. It is not closing the
original item but changing the planned for date and apparantly
recalculating the estimate based on the original estimate and time
spent. The newly created record is also in a "New" state,
with no estimate.

This is 1) the reverse of what I would expect and 2) I understand it
was supposed to close one of the work items. Otherwise I show 2 open
defects instead of one.

Can anyone clarify the way this is supposed to work?
