Forgot to ask to people to CC me. @Holger read your answer to mine at
https://lists.debian.org/debian-edu/2015/04/msg00028.html .
Can you share what the usertag you want me to file for Debian-edu ?
>From https://www.debian.org/Bugs/server-request#usertag
Could you share an e.g. of the usertag for say bug number 12345
(obviously a fictious bug number).
Also, if I'm not mistaken I could just have e-mail give the same
usertag to all the bugs I filed recently (which are in Debian-edu's
domain).
