I'm here. I also have 2295 open nautils bugs upstream (being the primary upstream maintainer), lots of nautilus bugs in redhat bugzilla (which are all likely dups of some upstream bug). At the same time I'm trying to work on new features like replacing gnome-vfs with the new gvfs glib module. In practice this means I'm very busy and thus I won't fix all bugs, or even have time to look at most of them. In fact, if I were to drop all new feature development and spend 2 hours on each open bug I would have to work over two man-years (8 hour days, 5 days a week). I tend to look over bugzilla looking for really high priority bugs, and I also have a bunch of bugsquad people who point me to these when they find them. This means less-than-high-prio bugs just show up quite low on the TODO list unfortunately. If people want to help out that would be very nice. > The bug was filed on 2007-06-08 (over 3 months ago) by J H Ettle and > added my +1 to it on 2007-08-29. Is Alexander missing?

What we need are more people to look at bugs, come up with patches that fix them and post them upstream, where I can review and commit them. This will then instantly come back to fedora (beacuse we track upstream closely). Unfortunately, not many people seem interested in doing this work. :( -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
