Plus, I've been on annual PTO for the last 10 days. Its fair to say I
basically ignore MATE bugs (typically the bugs were fixed upstream in the
last two years, or the obsolete framework parts contribute to the
misbehavior...) so unless there's a stacktrace that looks interesting or a
lot of dupes it's going to be at the bottom of my to-do. If I can't
reproduce the crash it's up to the reporter to debug things. Sorry if that
sounds harsh.
