10 To my shame I must concur with Ciaran ;p Maybe sending reports QA's
11 way, or such would be more preferred, as you can never be 100% sure that
12 your checking/fixing state machine is 100% correct - meaning I do think
13 that an human eye (which at least can contact the responsible parties)
14 should still be the last defence in *actually changing* ebuilds.
