Why the superfluous work? Where are the maintainers? Ah, I remember, they are flooded with tickets and cannot handle them all. Then why should I spend more time on re-evaluating defects again if there is no guarantee that this time they will be fixed? Where in the protocol is the person to work on the fix? Right, nowhere. The same [or new] maintainer may decide to ignore the report again due to lack of time or lack of interest. Till next time when I'll be asked to retest against F10. I don't criticise that tickets are set to NEEDINFO with some cool-looking "bzcl34nup" keyword applied to them. I criticise the plans to close tickets after 30 days, because that is equal to hiding things under the carpet. And it doesn't help with orphaned packages either. Look at http://bugz.fedoraproject.org/plague for example. The packages are unmaintained since FE6. What will happen if the NEEDINFO call is not answered? The packages will remain broken and unmaintained. There are other packages where the example would be valid, too. -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
