Where has QA stated that they don't want to do that? |
| 8 |
|
| 9 |
No, that was stated nowhere; as far as a statement goes, I've stated |
| 10 |
what its priority is, which doesn't imply that we don't want to do it. |

Did you mean "bug reports"? |

It is pending GNOME team feedback. |

The new QA team has only been around for 4 months; you can't expect |
| 31 |
everything to magically happen in that time, given a backlog of bugs |
| 32 |
that the previous QA team left behind (including old Tinderbox runs). |
| 33 |
|
| 34 |
Tinderbox bug has been visible to us for 2 months; so far, we've been |
| 35 |
busy so haven't picked it up yet, as well as have insufficient hardware. |
| 36 |
|
| 37 |
The pkg-config discussion has a consensus that differs from your |
| 38 |
opinion, I think that the QA team (with interest from _all_ developers |
| 39 |
[GLEP 48]) isn't going to override the community consensus here; even if |
| 40 |
the QA Team would, the Council members have voiced their opinion... |
