But being that it's a very good point it obviously never occurred to me that it shouldn't be spelled out in the metadata. Is there a policy for this as well that I am unaware of? A quick "site:devmanual.gentoo.org proxy" search indicates no documentation of this at all.
http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/qa/proxy-maintainers/index.xml?style=printable This page exists, but doesn't really mention anything about proper bug assignment. I know a lot of you have been doing this a very long time and there is a 'standard' way of doing things, but for us new guys if there is no documentation there is no policy. - -Zero -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.19 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with undefined - http://www.enigmail.net/ iQIcBAEBAgAGBQJQvjK5AAoJEKXdFCfdEflKQIUQALGbqDUONaKpQk4xLYDXDTQE gC7x7MMEyyBveZ3F2aZc/9IvWAzGYU0rQg7qOeEY8v6CLEDsNvi1mOQinhTNaJiv wnnk6NbnFrDEtBx5/J/3HDoR1PMFaCsAXM6Gd4vfMbtLYH3093COS5IyvBNP4oFB 3FQ+/kBZo9xN3TCpqxBCIjSZoR8aqxd4U6Px4o8KEKrDAkR9czyPRnqRAYb85ch1 qW37YOB2/MrYt1qDNo7m9NIQwmHVnThjkTqR/dzwxAEN7OEpo3MOXi0BX9CKb/kg 1Gp0XDE8iKzb3grnECZ+og4oyBWwZ9ydtGHOW7Vqa85CB2Zk2CkDPAq7RctYlS0t ItzBhSCDzuRjm3Y5J5jBrz0WaIMKfMQHqJR5ETXDnZmQIN39EqKb+oZYe1ei5hIJ LmX3zvjF9DVquC/JUQ2yeS/0m2YmF7G56dlE8OII7PlechpYb6pCyPoGttPcuI51 vUy+es8Ib8a2wqFHgpbmcbT37fJ/UVI0FgEuR6YV3ZH+uRwHcpLC8T7cIaTtI59Q mwIbFOu1+7JlNzJ3kEwZvY1ySuji8t8HbnBAWg6ehhaySbzijywlQtJCkyoUC+1I AMYkR085XWtomDss113E/c/cJqdn4UzzYR3C6gSyVf1iDqd4XgaG3AR2BGzKAiGr /J5yITUtwA99CNEpz6d8 =IukP -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
