I'm actually going to agree with jakub here. I wouldn't even say they |
| 21 |
need to fix the bug; but just acknowledge that they even read it or paid |
| 22 |
attention or "hey we are working on it" or "hey we don't give a flying |
| 23 |
rats ass." |

There is a minimal level of communication that is required between |
| 26 |
groups, otherwise nothing gets done and you *will* get people breaking |
| 27 |
your arch tree or pulling your keywords, because if you having commented |
| 28 |
on the bug ever then most sane people would probably assume you don't care. |
