I am trying to find consensus based on reasonable argument here. > [1]: http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/qa/bug-wranglers/ Documentation/policy should change after discussion. I set up the b-w project to get something of a standard going, not to "[tell] people what to do". I have been adding STABLEREQ recently because it's turning out to be more practical (mainly because developers keep forgetting to add it, despite the helpful suggestion from the robo-script). I will change the default in the b-w doc if I find there is reasonable consensus on the matter. jer
