thats right. but my feeling is that the real point here is to keep Vincent motivated while he has enough enthusiasm to fix years old bugs which nobody else would even touch. after all what the milestone 1.6.x means? if you consider those bugs as candy and bling worthless to add into 1.6 cycle they shouldnt have this milestone set in the first place. imho Vincent is doing fantastic when focusing on the tough and not so interesting bugs in the release and would be fair to give him more freedom to enjoy also some fun from the new things. pavel
