I think this is significantly more than the OP was proposing. I also think that it's unreasonable to expect that *every* bug, no matter the severity, should receive this treatment before allowing a new version to migrate to testing. > the point is not acknowledging the existence of the bug, it's > acknowledging the effort of the submitter and expressing an > appreciation for it. If I receive automatic notification from the BTS that the maintainer has attached a "confirmed" tag to the bug, that is plenty of acknowledgement. Anything more is expecting the package maintainer to personally stroke the ego of every bug submitter. That should be left to the discretion of the individual package maintainer; it is not a reasonable criterion, I feel, for preventing a package to migrate to testing. -- \ "If I melt dry ice, can I swim without getting wet?" -- Steven | `\ Wright | _o__) | Ben Finney -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
