With some of the dal and tri-state suggestions we have seen in this
thread automatic=1/contact=1 this would seem to be an opt-in vs opt-out.
But either way I don't care as long as we can get the bulk of the
bug-wranglers@ assigned to somewhere other than bug-wranglers@ and 
the scripts that are going to handle it don't have to become totally
convoluted while reasonable to maintain.

I don't see anything wrong with how it was proposed originally using
contact=0
