Been programming on unix/vax and then linux since the mid 80s and on punch 
cards in the late 70s.  Grew my first beard writing 8080 and Z80 assembler.  
All of that was over 30 years ago. 

All I want to do is report a damn bug!

Then I get nudged for a test case (although how to recreate the bug was already 
described) so I add the two lines to create a test case.  

Then I get nudged for a patch, so I give a patch even though there are many 
ways to deal with the issue.

Then I get nudged for patches for other branches, then I get nudged for 
official test_zipfile.py patches.

All of this **before** the damn owner has even bothered to look at it and say 
if he/she even wants it or if the patch is even correct.

I have my own working code for the epub ebook stuff I am working on so this 
issue no longer impacts me.

How did I go from a simple bug report to having to build python's latest 
checkout just to get someone to look at the bug.

You have got to be kidding me!

I am done here,  do what you want with the bug.
