 Jakub is like a spam filter who filters out 100% of the spam. Sadly, he
 filters a fair amount of ham too - and if your ham got filtered the option
 to get it recognized as ham are hard to find and not easy to use ;)

 His user interface could be improved

Maybe someone should submit a bug report

Let me guess, Jakub closed it?  LOL 

Can I also assume he decided to stay?  I read he was leaving a while back.

Lemme be perfectly clear here. Jakub does a very good job of what he
does, and gentoo IMO does suffer a bit when hes not here.  Bugs need
wrangling, or the right devs dont get even told they're there, and
Jakub does a legendary job of redirecting them to the right place.
Its like having an email server with only one ingoing email address
and having to get a human to redirect all the mails by hand to the
right inboxes.

He is like gentoo. Not perfect, but better than all the other choices :)
Gentoo does tend to get a little pissy sometimes, but what can you expect  =)

Maybe I should clarify a bit.  The first part was a joke.  I have filed
bugs and I have never had one closed that I can recall.  I'm clueless
about that sort of thing and he still managed to figure mine out.  Not
sure how he did that though.  LOL

I subscribe to the dev list and I think that was where I read he was
leaving.  A LOT, I mean  LOT, of people asked him to stay.  I didn't but
I didn't want him to leave either.  Even if he had closed one of my
bugs, I still wouldn't.  I think replacing him with a bot thing was
going to cause a lot of trouble.  I read that was their plan at least.

So, I agree.  He does his job well in my opinion.  If I had a few extra
brain cells left, I would try to help.  Me being on dial-up and my
health making me unpredictable to say the least would make that pretty
much pointless.

Glad you stayed Jakub.  Hang in there.

That should read as I didn't _say anything_ but I didn't want him to

The bot doesn't replace him. It shows suggestions for who the right assignee 
would be based on metadata.xml for the package in question. At least for now. 
And yes, he did reconsider and decide to stay.

Yea, but whatever it would be, a human being has to be better. 
Computers are nice but they can't do everything, else they could do the

Don't think so. I understand from this thread he's a tough guy, but if
logic and other people support show you're right, is there little he can
be but agree (or behave as a complete jerk and ignore facts, his choice
- but it is not an excuse for not trying).

I don't know. I think it's just Jakub. He's REALLY quick to kill a
bug, especially if he doesn't completely understand what the bug is

 I'm some bit confused that the wranglers should do such decisions
 at all (if they're not also involved in the affected package).

If you disagree with his decision, simply reopen the bug. And do
so over and over again.

 Again the old philosophy what I don't understand is invalid.
 
 Obviously my contributions are unwelcomed, so I closed the bug.

Yep, Jakub often has a quite jerky tone. So do a lot of the
Gentoo devs.
