Still not easy enough it seems: # #19648: Please document (and handle) callback option better Package: ppp; Severity: minor; Reported by: Bill Wohler <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; Tags: patch; 5 years and 146 days old. # #12411: example directory lister ignores errors Package: glibc-doc; Reported by: Ian Jackson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; Tags: patch; 5 years and 342 days old. Do you think any DD reads those? Do DDs care about Bugs with patches? And don't tell me glibc is unmaintained or ppp. Do you still claim that non-DDs can do work for debian simply by sending in patches? It sometimes works but your url is the best argument that it is totally disfunctional. Apart from that, whats the magic url to get the same but with dates since last activity? There could be a 5 year old bug with a 1 day old patch. I wouldn't want to NMU that without at least giving the maintainer a chance to look at the patch. MfG Goswin
