While I agree that it's better to see this kind of response in the bug database (with an announcement/link posted to the mailing list on hotbutton issues like this), seeing it on the list is better than not seeing it at all. So Quim, count this as positive feedback regarding your active participation in the lists and your efforts to bring the "straight story" to light whenever possible. They are noticed and appreciated. I've pasted Quim's response into Bug #303 so folks that refer there will have this latest info. Thanks, Mike
