Other PTs would have to explicitly say that they tested whatever the 'omg raptors!' PT said was broken and could not reproduce, in order to overturn their feedback. (And then we'd go after the incorrect PT with the 2x4 with a rusty nail in it...) -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Twitter: AdamW_Fedora | identi.ca: adamwfedora http://www.happyassassin.net -- test mailing list test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test
