That was me. Thanks! It'll be much simpler to tell folks were to look, |
| 15 |
now. =8^) |

Two further suggestions: |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
1) Consider generalizing the bug-filing HOWTO a bit (beyond keywording), |
| 20 |
and linking it at the top under documentation. Gentoo's bugzilla |
| 21 |
needs a bit of extra hand-holding the first time or two, even for the |
| 22 |
normally pretty technically literate who may have filed bugs elsewhere |
| 23 |
before, and this should help a bit with quality plus encouraging them to |
| 24 |
be filed. |
| 25 |
|
| 26 |
2) One more line under documentation, mentioning the further resources at |
| 27 |
the bottom, might be nice. |
| 28 |
|
| 29 |
Otherwise, looks great, and it's /definitely/ more useful for the average |
| 30 |
user than it was before! =8^) |
