Comment 400 for bug 85488

@Mark: Sitsofe is testing with the *Gusty* (you could say "alpha", "next version" or "testing") kernels, trying his best to ensure that this problem *does not affect the next release*. Whether it is worthwhile or not, at least he is TRYING to help fix the problem.

If you would like to contact Canon, you are free to do so and report back with the results. If they respond with valuable information (sans NDA) then there should be no reason why that information could not also be integrated into later bug fixes.

(Fortunately or unfortunately, the development model here seems to be that fixes can only go into the next version unless it's a security fix. Perhaps that needs to be changed, but that is a discussion for another (wishlist priority) bug report.)
