> May I ask why? Because I shouldn't have to spend time on some bugzilla web site just to work on some bug. The bugs should come to me, by being reported to the appropriate mailing list, I shouldn't have to seek them. The kernel bugzilla exists only to make some bean counters at some corporations happy that there is some place to track kernel bugs. But this is wholly incompatible with how upstream kernel development works. The kernel bugzilla database would never have been created with the sole impetus of the core kernel folks, that's simply not how we work. That is why. Sending bugzilla reports directly to the list is not the answer. That means a lot of garbage ends up on the list, so if anything it should either: 1) get forwarded by hand by someone willing to volunteer to filter out the crap 2) get sent directly to the right mailing list in the first place, bypassing the kernel bugzilla altogether The latter is what happens in practice for sparc stuff. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe ultralinux" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
