Thanks The Wanderer,
You explained it better that I can ever do! It is a perception problem at the first plane. --

I suspect that he feels that closing a bug report without having first
tried to address it equals pretending that the problem reported in the
bug report does not exist, and thus, represents an attempt to hide the
fact that the problem does exist.
Given all the surrounding facts (some of which you've cited, quite
validly, in this thread), I'm not sure he's right, but - at least from
the outside, and as a general matter - the perception does seem to be a
reasonable one. Which only means that this represents a potential PR
problem, albeit perhaps a minor one. |
