They generate irrelevant information for me because I cannot help with |
| 15 |
stabling. So I would love to have the possibility to -CC me there after |
| 16 |
siging the stabling off. |

or the package maintainer can put a REMOVEOLD keyword on the bug or |
| 37 |
something to make obvious that he wants it removed. I would love this |
| 38 |
possibility :) |
