OK, so - java folks, please, take your java migration overlay bugs
somewhere else from bugzilla. You know very well I had no problem w/
assigning them, I just requested them to be clearly marked as such
(which the users have been doing, thank you for that). Since some
developers consider such use of bugzilla as misuse of Gentoo
infrastructure and have gone so far that they involved devrel in this
discussion, I'm not going to assign those bugs any more.

Your 'thank you' goes especially to brix, your complaints go to devrel
as a body that proclaimed themselves empowered to decide on acceptable
bugzilla usage. There's no technical difference between using bugzilla
for unofficial java migration overlay hosted on gentooexperimental.org
and using it for unofficial overlay hosted on gentoo-sunrise.org (and
even usage of keywords and status whiteboard for unofficial overlays
counts as a misuse of bugzilla here). Devrel's current policy clearly is
that bugzilla may only be used for official overlays hosted on
overlays.gentoo.org,


Sorry for the inconvenience, not my fault.
