Jer - can you comment on how these changes are getting made? Is this |
| 7 |
some kind of script, or are you manually making these changes? |

Either way, could you consider adjusting your practice so that if the |
| 10 |
only change is to add a period or other trivial modification that you |
| 11 |
avoid it for the moment? If you're using a script and are willing to |
| 12 |
accept patches but don't have time to make the changes yourself, |
| 13 |
consider posting it. |

| 15 |
Additionally, can anybody who knows more about bugzilla comment on how |
| 16 |
easy it would be to have some way to mark modifications as trivial, |
| 17 |
and take this into account in the bugspam? Either make it |
| 18 |
configurable as to whether users get trivial bugspam (ideally), or at |
| 19 |
least stick something in the headers that can be filtered on. |

Just trying to get beyond the complaining and find ways to actually |
| 22 |
improve things... |
