about #771617: I often setup LVM inside encrypted partitions on wheezy, so I 
was fairly sure this bug does not occur on wheezy.

about #771485: I never heard about parted segfaulting on released wheezy 
images, so I thought this bug was not (as) relevant for wheezy.

In the last two years I've never argued when someone (seldomly) correcty my 
tagging of wheezy-rc bugs. (And except for this one accident with the one bug 
last week I also never played tag ping pong once.) Right now I'm also not 
argueing but rather trying to explain why I tagged them as I tagged.

But, as it seems people making mistakes annoy you more than people doing 
nothing, I will do this from now. It's no fun to do this (mostly) thankless 
janitor work if one has to justify oneself like this. Perfect is the enemy of 
good and all that.. I already noticed a bad feeling and "fear" of such replies 
when I did the tagging today and in future I think I will rather do other 
things when I'm looking for little things to do to wake up... 

Which is kind of ironic as you also seem to care about Wheezy (which should 
make me happy.) Sigh.

FWIW, wheezy was the first release where the RC list for wheezy (most of the 
times) only contained bugs relevant for wheezy (and not 30-50% bugs not 
affecting wheezy). I thought this was useful work...

And yes, when tagging 20 bugs I don't research each of them for very long... 
but I also thought (wished?) we were doing kind of team work, where people 
help each other when they sometimes do little mistakes.

I wrote this mail a week ago and didnt send it, to see if I change my mind. 
Now I was just reminded of RC bugs in wheezy, thought about this, read what I 
wrote and decided to push the send button. It's no fun if it's no fun.
