Hm, or alternatively, you could have a scheme where things defaulted in the bug queue, and were auto-assigned where possible after no feedback for a time, or maybe it would be defaulted only when the queue is over a certain size. At least that way the hero's can provide as much quality as they like, and if they get tired and stop triaging bugs, a sensible fallback that's not perfect can fill the gaps. -- Kent KENTNL - https://metacpan.org/author/KENTNL
