In the future, it's possible that the number of subscribers will be exposed... but it's not exactly a high item on the todo list (at least, it's not high on mine.) [Not to mention the fact that the number of subscribers won't necessarily indicate the number of people who are interested in a bug or its importance.] Don Armstrong -- Frankly, if ignoring inane opinions and noisy people and not flaming them to crisp is bad behaviour, I have not yet achieved a state of nirvana. -- Manoj Srivastava in 87n04pzhmh.fsf@glaurung.internal.golden-gryphon.com http://www.donarmstrong.com http://rzlab.ucr.edu
