(Looking it up again ...) the point you made in your earlier message made the point about nondevelopers submitting bug reports. This one seems to be becoming a FAQ. See my reply to Hamish Moffatt, saying just the same thing just now. I suppose I could make the change you (and others) suggest: Saying "both Developers" implies that only developers file bug reports? It might be better to change that to something like "both the submitter and maintainer" ?? Perhaps it's sufficient to let the fact that the document is about disputes between developers carry the particular point about putative useless bug reports by nondevelopers ? Ian.
