That's a salient point here: Manoj is filing bugs for issues the FTP team has declared to be bugs. It's rather disingenuous to claim now that they are one person's “pet cosmetic issues”. > If one team can muck with policy related bug severities, and I > have to just suck it up, I gave another important team the same > benefit. This, though, is a distraction. I think there is something to what you're saying about a double standard, but it's not relevant in this case. Just because one has criticisms of team FOO's behaviour does not mean it's relevant when discussing team BAR's behaviour. If what you're doing has merit (and in this case I personally think it does), then discuss its merits instead of the flaws you see in others. -- \ “We reserve the right to serve refuse to anyone.” —restaurant, | `\ Japan | _o__) | Ben Finney -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
