opening a bug and sending a mail, or sending only a mail are OK for me. Opening a bug, may not be enough, specially if it is not affected to anyone, or if it is too broad. The #313848 is a good example, it spans other several backends, is not affected to anybody and has this unattractive comment 'there may be some false positives'. Since I have more things to do than time to do it, I'd rather not dig into a big report to see if I have something to fix. And when I (too rarely) look at the issue tracker, I prefer to look into reports that have clear description. Regards, Stef -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
