None of the SpamAssassin devs use Amavisd-New, and the report didn't have enough information to develop a fix in time; in-depth data about the issue (and a partial fix) weren't provided until days before 3.0.0 was due to be released. Deciding what goes in and what doesn't is a tricky thing in every situation, and we decided that it was best to release 3.0.0 and get the fix in for 3.0.1 rather than delaying 3.0.0 further. We could have delayed 3.0.0 indefinitely until all known issues are closed. but eventually you have to say "it's good *enough*". It's a balance between perfection and time. c'est la vie. - --j. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.4 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Exmh CVS iD8DBQFBUbZ1QTcbUG5Y7woRAr3RAKCgiBVw1n/m1+cEvsJ7d7fNm5O66QCfXb34 GF0sb+O30PCULMcQSTNxu4Y= =DBve -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
