...do you want me to do in situations like this? I'm asking, as I see
situations like this frequently -- e.g. people reporting problems a
second, third, or fourth time while the fix is already sitting in -next
for a few days.
Want me to list them in the weekly reports so that you can cherry-pick
them from -next if you want?
Ciao, Thorsten
