You can always put some of these on the council agenda (as has already |
| 9 |
been done with pkg-config). Granted, I'm not sure what you expect |
| 10 |
anybody to do about the tinderbox, as the only thing that requires is |
| 11 |
somebody to step up and just do the work. |

I agree with your point that a tinderbox would be useful - adding more |
| 14 |
bug reports to bugzilla is a good thing, and some will get ignored, |
| 15 |
but others will get fixed which otherwise wouldn't be noticed. |

However, I don't really see QA as the thing standing in the way of a |
| 17 |
tinderbox. |

Honestly, I'm not a big fan of QA taking on the role of the body that |
| 20 |
makes controversial decisions. I think they're the right place to |
| 21 |
start with questions like these, but when there is an issue that isn't |
| 22 |
clear-cut I think that is what the council is for. I'm not saying |
| 23 |
that QA shouldn't ever be able to make policy - only that it should |
| 24 |
use discretion when doing so, and that seems to be what is happening |
| 25 |
here. |
