You can always revoke a pub uuid in the future. Perhaps a message about that will encourage people to be more forthcoming with Smolt profiles within such a tool. Obviously, including a smolt profile just automates certain kinds of information (read: privacy) disclosures, which is sometimes necessary in a bug report anyways. Unless that information as cached elsewhere, revoking a public UUID essentially makes people forget the details though. -Yaakov -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
