Telling you how to triage? No. Finding a way of saying "you do not need to waste your time on these bugs, because these have special procedures and different definitions of things, and feel free to focus on other bugs" - I guess you could interpret that as telling you how to triage, at a stretch.
On the other hand, isn't it better for you guys that way, so you end up with a higher final count of bugs that are looked at in a given time period? Doesn't that make the bug squad more effective?
It is a pity that this discussion escalated so fast to the makings of a flame war.
I would hope that could be avoided.As a general note, I was not putting words into your mouth - I was commenting more on what some of the general perceptions seem to be, from within the bug squad.
Unfortunately, the last 'consensus' I saw was a wiki revert (which, I now see has been added back, with a great section of 'draft' around it), and when attempting to discuss the ways forward with some high members of the bug squad, some MOTUs effectively got responses of "we don't approve of using the bug tracker for workflow bugs, as they're not real bugs, so you guys have to figure out a way of making it work the way you guys want it to, without us changing, because there are more triagers than developers, so it's more feasible for you guys to change your workflow than us".
I would hope that a mailing list is more effective than the irc-based discussions were. It being on both mailing lists, so both groups of people see it, should help with that.
Needless to say, I'll hearby assume that the above comments some of the developers got from the bug squad are *not* the norm - and from these mails, it would appear that there is a reasonable chance of mediation, rather than the earlier vibes coming from certain members of the bug squad team.
