This is not a matter of quirks. It is not a *quirk* making a mess of |
| 29 |
other people work and doing that repeatedly. |

|
| 31 |
It is *not* getting along or not, it is having one side causing damage |
| 32 |
and not being accounted for that for reasons that are and will make us |
| 33 |
bleed contributors. |

And what annoys me the most is that the issue would had been solved by |
| 36 |
_fixing_ the bugzilla setup but apparently nobody had the time or the |
| 37 |
will, me included, mostly since I do not dabble in perl. |
