34 I agree with the above reasoning, but Petteri raised a good point about
35 "old bugs". I suggest that for old bugs we swap the maintainer and the
36 arch team so that the maintainer is added to CC and the arch team is
37 assigned the bug. If and or when the bug is resolved, the maintainer can
38 reassign the bug again.
