A bug tracking system stick you on a bug and makes all this to look like real work, that's why maybe David does not like it :) Kidding ;) The good of a bug tracking system against the mailing list is that bugs do survive in a bug tracking system, while they usually vanish for normal underlooked posts. Many ppl posting bugs are not members of the mailing list and they are not usually setting up a repost timer if the bug does not get answered. I believe that it should be both ways. Posts on the mailing list helps main maintainers to lower the load by allowing others to take on bugs, while the bug tracking helps unresolved bugs to stick. - Davide - : send the line "unsubscribe linux-net" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
