1 Don't blame it on the west, Mr Smith :)

3 I wasn't [originally] trying to blame anybody, I was originally trying to
4 tell the person I thought had made the mistake (via the Changelog) to please
5 fix it asap (hence my direct CC) rather than have that person have to wait
6 and wade through the list.

8 No matter which longitude the attitude comes from, the bug needs fixing, but
9 more importantly, the bug should never have made into stable. This really
10 should be an effort to shore up quality control, no blame attributed to
11 anybody in particular. The result should be that a mistake is learned from,
12 not ignored. Daniel says that it won't be ignored, so I am very happy with
13 that response.
