I suspect the concern is over the definition of "rotting away." Just about every package in the tree has had open bugs for weeks and months. Not all bugs are worth fixing right away, but that doesn't mean they aren't valid. When they can be fixed, they are. Packages without bugs are packages that nobody has bothered to test... :) Rich
