I think 4 weeks are enough even if someone goes > for a vacation after filing the bug :) Completely understand where you're coming from with that... :) In practise (not in BZ, but many other similar situations) giving much longer than a few days seems to have not much positive effect. If we remind people _soon_ (just a few days), then there's a decent chance their systems will be setup the same, and they'll be able to collect the info we've asked for. If we leave it much longer though, it's most likely the systems won't be in the state needed, so the reporter would have to set them up again + replicate the problem (time consuming, often people don't bother). If someone is on holiday and closes an issue, they're completely welcome to re-open it. (we should make that clear in the message we leave when closing it, so they don't get offended) But, up to you guys. ;) + Justin -- GlusterFS - http://www.gluster.org An open source, distributed file system scaling to several petabytes, and handling thousands of clients.
