Bug Description

In many cases for each milestone there can be same Work items that need to be done. The Work Item tracker count all the same work items as one. In the example included below the 6 Work items are counted as only 2.

Example:
Work items for 11.06:
[npitre] Freeze the monthly release: TODO
[npitre] Deliver the monthly release: TODO

Work items for 11.07:
[npitre] Freeze the monthly release: TODO
[npitre] Deliver the monthly release: TODO

Work items for 11.08:
[npitre] Freeze the monthly release: TODO
[npitre] Deliver the monthly release: TODO

Places I know of that may be affected:

The display on the workitems listing only lists two workitems.

I don't know if the assignee counts and blueprint totals include two or
all of them.

The burndown chart does count all of them.

Thanks,

James
