FWIW, basically no-one takes any notice of the Target trackers, practically speaking. I've given up using 'em. So it's no *worse*, in this case. :) I'd say just set them to 'high' priority. You can also drop an email to the maintainers to point up the issues, in case they're not aware. > I also noticed that there are still open bugs blocking FC5Target > through F12Target.

At present I'm not aware of it being much use to anyone. -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Fedora Talk: adamwill AT fedoraproject DOT org http://www.happyassassin.net -- test mailing list test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test
