31 Right but you are missing the point here: comrel does not create "if X
32 then ban Y days" type of rules. comrel reacts to complaints: this is
33 what is imposed from outside. Obviously there is no algorithmic rule in
34 that kind of procedure.
35 QA, on the other hand, does create "this does not belong to gentoo.git"
36 types of rules that apply to anyone.
