If it's helpful to know, it says, "There are no permission bits set on your account." >> I sent an e-mail to the module owner, the peers, and the bug reporter, >> asking if one of them could assign me to the bug. > > Er, you could have asked in irc.mozilla.org #mozilla or here too. Oh, okay. Are there plenty of people with sufficient rights to assign someone to a bug, or is it just a relatively small number of people, like module owner and peers and hardly anyone else? Basically, in a random crowd at #mozilla, is there just about guaranteed to be someone with sufficient rights for something like that? Maybe it was gratuitously unnecessary for me to e-mail the module owner and peers in this case. > I mean, many people working on Mozilla are Netscape employees; but far > not all.

Hope I didn't unintentionally come across as FUD'ing about the control issue. I was just curious. Now back to working on the patch, which hopefully will go smoother than getting assigned to the bug ;) -- Matt Coughlin [EMAIL PROTECTED] <remove "sp4mless_" from the e-mail address to reply>
