Dear Julian, I guess you misunderstood my reply somehow. Neither I am ignoring the project, as I welcome QA-related reviews nor do I want to turn down your motivation to review packages. I simply just want to become notified via bugzilla instead of plain mail. There are various reasons. I probably should have explained them before. I am sorry for that. * While I receive countless mails on multiple accounts every day and also read those on (mobile) devices, that do not allow access to Gentoo repositories, I will simply miss to fix those issues. * A bug in bugzilla reminds me in an organized way about issues, that should be fixed. * It is also organized in a way, that is easily searchable for others that come across the issue. * Bugzilla allows to change the assignee, CC yourself get notified about changes and lots of other possibilities a mailing list doesn't serve. * And finally: Bugzilla is not a broadcast medium as mailing lists are, allowing people to subscribe to things they actually are interested in. Regarding the issues you consider too low-hanging for bugzilla, have you considered to use IRC for that? With best regards, Manuel
