I assume we're talking here about the bugs tagged as "fixed" but not yet closed. It used to be common practice to include these in the changelog and close them in the next maintainer upload, and that still works. However, with the version tracking in the BTS, the best way is to send a message [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a "Version: <nmu-version>" pseudo-header. This is because the bugs in question were actually fixed in the nmu-version so closing them with that version would be the most accurate expression of their status. Thanks for your interest in getting boa properly maintained. Thijs -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
