Other than that, I agree. There is an intermediate layer of human judgement between Policy and RC-bugginess, namely the release managers. Manoj has been working on bringing Policy more closely in line with the release policy, but I expect that line of human judgement will remain. I think it's valuable; there's no substitute for human evaluation of the importance of a bug. -- Russ Allbery ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
