I'm not sure who "owns" policy around bugzilla. If nothing else I'm |
| 23 |
happy to put this on the next Council agenda. If QA or Comrel wants |
| 24 |
to step in sooner they're welcome to, but if they're looking for a |
| 25 |
policy to enforce the Council could probably provide one. |

Self-contained bugs in general make sense, and I'm all for finding a |
| 28 |
better solution than what the tinderbox currently supplies. However, |
| 29 |
until that solution comes along I think we're better off having |
| 30 |
tinderbox runs than not having them. |

If somebody took the time to systematically test my packages and the |
| 33 |
biggest issue was that I had to fetch a URL, then I'd do them the |
| 34 |
favor of fetching it and attaching the file myself, because I want to |
| 35 |
know when my stuff breaks. I can't always fix every bug as quickly as |
| 36 |
I'd like to, but I'm not going to just close them and stick my head in |
| 37 |
the sand. |

Why are we all here anyway? If we want to all play games I'm sure we |
| 40 |
can make life miserable for each other, but frankly I'd rather spend |
| 41 |
my time making my favorite distro better, and I can't imagine why else |
| 42 |
anybody would be wasting their time reading my emails... :) |
