Don't worry, I consider myself placed on notice that making such an assumption without overwhelming evidence to the contrary would be unwise. :-/ In any case, let's review the original language to which you took offense: In the above, anyone who cares to read the entry can clearly understand the justification for the bug's closure, and the maintainer/uploader clearly not simply closing irrelevant bugs with the Debian changelog out of laziness. "Herbert Xu would never do such a thing" is not a valid defense. Our changelogs need to be accessible to those who are not aware of your reputation within the Debian Project. ...the obvious implication being that you have a reputation for anything *but* laziness. We might be able to communicate more effectively if you would accept kind words in the spirit they're offered. -- G.
