I really regret writing a reply to this bug so fast... I was kind of scared
that someone claimed a bug right on the ITP :) In fact, I re-read the policy
after writing the message, and was going to point out to Karl that part of the
Policy. Well, mistakes happen... :/ By the way, Karl, could you please tell me
what do you think is wrong about me closing this bug?
Thanks,
Carlos
