From: Alan Cox <alan@lxorguk.ukuu.org.uk> Date: 28 Jun 2003 00:04:30 +0100 You are assuming there is a relationship in bug severity/commonness and number of *developers* who hit it. Not true, the assumption I make is that a bug report that a bug reporter cares about, and a patch that a patch submitter cares about, will all get resent if they get dropped. If the reporter/submitter doesn't care, neither do I. You keep saying that lost information is bad and serves no positive purpose, and I totally disagree. Drops are litmus tests for the patch/report, they also serve to educate the submitters. And to repeat, this process is a two way street Alan. If you try to make it anything else, you will wear yourself thin. Once you enforce the work to be distributed to the people who report to you as much as to the people taking the reports, thing will go much more smoothly. :-) - : 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
