Yes, this is probably the most helpful way for me to determine which |
17 |
ebuilds I want to touch when I look at the bug-wranglers list. Because I |
18 |
don't want to get stuck with the bugs later for something I don't use or |
19 |
don't have an interest in, I go through and pick up ebuilds that have a |
20 |
description that interests me. I'm sure other developers do the same. |
21 |
Additionally, it helps the bug-wranglers people decide where to assign |
22 |
those bugs. |
