Always a difficult call. Personally I like to keep the code on my disk in sync with the code in the archive, and I prefer to err on the side of uploading. The "Cathedral and the Bazaar" article gave me some inspiration in this regard. Having simple (cosmetic) bugs remain unfixed for a long time is also discouraging for the people who report those bugs; that's another reason to be fast with even small bugfixes. Richard Braakman
