If you have time for this that would be awesome! My impression is that most iproute bugs are actually bugs inside the kernel networking stack. I didn't want to reassign stuff blindly though just to dump them somewhere else where they'll be forgotten. I've previously tried to do agressive bug triaging and I hope the result is that you'll now find most bugs are either longstanding probably-valid bugs (and you should be able to tell from the subject line already if it's a minor thing like manpage updates requests). -- Andreas Henriksson
