The problem is, I don't personally like acting as if I'm running for office everytime I find a bug I think should be confirmed. It's kinda bad that rather than searching for other bugs I'm e-mailing people to ask them to vote for my bug and I'll make sure that some of the funds go to their state. Oh, sorry, there are no funds involved. ;-) I mean, I have several outstanding bug reports that could use consideration, but it seems to me posting on to cooker another request for votes simply lowers the signal:noise ratio. Maybe it should be that everyone who has had five or ten valid bugs gets edit_bug or some other privilage that allows them to confirm their own bugs? -Tim - -- - ---------------------------------------------------------------- Timothy R.
