I think the key part here is the 'doesn't make anything worse'. Ie, 10 bugs on a update, 9 of them are fixed, but the one that isn't causes data loss that wasn't present before this update, etc. > (The update submitter can edit the not-fixed bugs out of the update > before it goes stable to avoid them being closed, if s/he is paying > sufficient attention.) Yeah, I agree... just trying to answer too many emails at once. ;( I'd add that you could note _on the bug_ or in a comment on the update (with +0) that whatever bug you see attached to the update that isn't fixed isn't fixed, so the maintainer knows and can remove it from the update or evaluate how bad it is and decide what they want to do. kevin
