To have even more unmaintained packages in the tree. The tree it is that needs QA. If "maintainer-wanted" bugs stay open forever - who cares. > It was discussed on this list. Thanks for the pointer. :p So from the user point of view it's better to file a request without attaching an ebuild, because it wouldn't directly resolved WONTFIX?! (Before you answer that: From the user point of view, not your's.) I mean I'm often giving a pointer on an formal issue or a very wrong attempt, but being that strict is not neecessary, discouraging and probably some even take the chance to molest about Gentoo, imho.
