I think the theory is that a non-technical user who reports a bug might not be interested in reading a lot of mail where scary geeks throw incomprehensible jargon at each other while they figure out how to fix the problem. On the other hand, I do not think that most of the bugs in our BTS are reported by non-technical users. -- Henning Makholm "This imposes the restriction on any procedure statement that the kind and type of each actual parameter be compatible with the kind and type of the corresponding formal parameter." -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

AIUI, that's where <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> comes in handy. You could send the email to the bug via that alias and then CC the person you're discussing the patch with.

I'd consider this a bug in the software, the principle of least surprise would suggest that one gets copied on updates to bugs one submits. I've seen this on every BTS I've encountered and it makes sense to do so. Of course it should be easy to unsubscribe. Thijs signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part
