If an option has *never* worked on a given configuration, then it's not a regression. That's not a matter of taste, it's a matter of language. We prioritise regressions because they mean that someone's previously working configuration no longer works. Tying the word "regression" to other bugs just to get someone to look at them faster is counterproductive. -- Matthew Garrett | mj...@srcf.ucam.org ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The Planet: dedicated and managed hosting, cloud storage, colocation Stay online with enterprise data centers and the best network in the business Choose flexible plans and management services without long-term contracts Personal 24x7 support from experience hosting pros just a phone call away. http://p.sf.net/sfu/theplanet-com -- _______________________________________________ Dri-devel mailing list Dri-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/dri-devel
