<aside>The number of people who file bugs and then vanish or just don't respond to further inquiries is pretty significant. I've even seen people submit *patches* along with reports, but never surface either in bugzilla or mail lists again. Both weird and frustrating.</aside> Actually, that last case doesn't surprise me. If someone submits a working patch, it means they personally no longer have the problem. From their point of view, it's finished.
And that they completely do not understand Open Source. It isn't as straight forward as submitting "a patch that worked for me". Developers will frequently have questions about the patch, the patch will have been created incorrectly (suprisingly frequent), etc... You'd think someone who took the time to create a patch would be willing to respond to a few e-mails in order to get it upstream. -- -- Adam Tauno Williams Network & Systems Administrator Consultant - http://www.whitemiceconsulting.com Developer - http://www.opengroupware.org -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
