2006-04-05 07:50:50 Matthew Paul Thomas description Malone no longer lets people report bugs on a product or distribution unless the registrant of that product or distribution has said they're using Malone. However, there are a bunch of bug reports that were filed on such products or distributions before this restriction was implemented. Some of these should be reported upstream; some are on products when they should be on packages; some are probably duplicates; a few may be invalid. These bugs need to be resolved somehow. One way would be for Stuart to run a query and give us links to all the bugs so we can resolve them ourselves. Another way would be to provide a link on Malone's front page for volunteers to help out. Which way would take less time depends on how many such bugs there are.
