As dilfridge pur jer in CC, I guess that some of jer's changes to bugs |
| 19 |
were not welcomed by maintainers. |

One recent example of non-maintainer activity in the package list field |
| 22 |
is bug 613104, where he just removed the entire package list (and then |
| 23 |
marked the bug WONTFIX). |
| 24 |
Also very common is that he changes fully qualified package names (which |
| 25 |
is the correct syntax per [1]) into fully qualified package atoms (which |
| 26 |
is the legacy syntax). Bug 616260 is one such example. |
