If you don't have time or don't want to forward your contribution to
upstream developers, please simply mention it. However don't assume that
I "must" do it or don't turn your sentences to a personal attack, don't
forget that this is community collaboration. Your comments are not
collaborative and respectful : http://www.ubuntu.com/community/conduct

I use to triage bugs, and I often forward bugs upstream. In this
particular case, I already mentioned that your work might require you to
work with upstream gnucash people so if you're not willing to
collaborate with them so your contribution can get improved and included
in gnucash, I will still forward your patches to gnucash but I can
predict that something will be missing in the bug report : you. I'm
asking you to work with gnucash developers in respect of the work you
already done, not because I don't want to do it. It would have been
pretty easier to forward it upstream without a word than trying to
explain you why your contribution is important.

Your patch fixes documentation, so that's the kind of thing that often
requires discussion. If your patch would fix a crash bug, all required
steps would already have been taken to test it and consider it for
upstream gnucash and for ubuntu. However code and documentation are
different things, and uploading this change in ubuntu only is just
counterproductive for both ubuntu and gnucash. Don't forget that ubuntu
is a distribution. The goal is to work with upstream projects, not only
to work on ubuntu.

So I'm forwarding your bug upstream, it will take 3 minutes. Don't
forget that the most important if you want to help gnucash project is
your own collaboration.
