And what he's telling you, and what I'm telling you, is that it's a
completely crap criterion for those of us who deal with massive packagesets
like KDE. Simply replying to a bug won't get it fixed any sooner or
decrease the impact it has on the user. In addition, it distracts us from
doing what is potentially far more productive work.
