22 Quote from bug: "..increase her activity by proxy-maintaining some

24 http://bugs.gentoo.org/custom_userhistory.cgi?matchstr=wormo@g.o
25 shows recent activity. So, I don't know..have you tried contacting her

27 that it is 'ok' for you to fix - especially if you communicate and
28 willing to fix what you break.
