That said, if we diligently credit our bug reporters, they I know what you're getting at, but this reads as if one should add the tag even if it's contrary to the reporter's wishes. How about something like: If the bug report was via a private channel, please obtain the reporter's permission before adding this tag - or, even better, ask that the report be posted publicly. ? jon -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-doc" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
