Reopening bugs is generally a good way of ensuring that there's even less interest in discussion from the developers, and posting to mailing lists that most of the developers concerned don't read has pretty obvious problems in terms of changing their minds. > If this had been on the anaconda list, most impacted parties would > not have seen it. Speaking for myself, I'm glad it was brought up here. I think making people aware of it on devel was a perfectly reasonable thing to do, but most of the rest of the thread has been pretty pointless. We don't make technical decisions by majority vote - most get left up to the maintainers of the project in question. -- Matthew Garrett | mjg59@xxxxxxxxxxxxx -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
