This surely results in a lower cleanup rate. It's irritating replying to a bugzilla entry when you _know_ that you're cutting other interested parties out of the loop. And mailing lists tend to be self-correcting: - The once-off bugs due to broken hardware get filtered away. - The bugs which simply get magically fixed when someone repaired some unrelated part of the kernel get filtered out. - The bugs which are affecting people the most get reported the most. - Lots of other people can chip in with potentially useful info. It is nice to have a record. But bugzilla is not a comfortable or productive environment within which to drill down into and fix problems. - : 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
