And that is a good thing.

Simply tagging bug reports is going, in the end, to have a useless BTS filled with thousands of bug reports that we don't know whether they still apply or not. I'm quite shocked by your reaction against someone who kindly volunteered to sort the huge load of Mozilla-related bugs, because it is a long and boring task that we are missing manpower for. > I certainly did not expect this kind of approach from Debian. > > I would like to recommend > > http://www.jwz.org/doc/cadt.html > > which succintly summarises the impression this kind of action gives. Quoting JWZ while talking of respecting people is not going to make your point. Cheers, -- .''`.
