I've just got a mail notification that this CR [1] was closed as "Will
not fix". I am little bit surprise with that resolutiuon given that he
consensus on this thread [2] seem to be in favor of fixing the
problem.

Another thing that bothers me is that despite the fact that I filed
the CR I was never contacted by the person who closed it and I was not
given any reason for closing it this way. I find it somewhat
"unfriendly" way of conducting business. The fact that mail
notification strips the real names and only divulge things like "<User
1-5BMAI7>" also adds to frustration. It feels like talking to a wall.

So how can I find out what happened and whom to talk ?
