  I see that you sent info, but only to the BTS control bot, which prevents it
  from being reflected in the bug log.
  
  I suggest you re-send it.
 
 Btw, as for this BTS ping-pong game, Max asked that you file separate bugs
 instead of reopening this one.  This doesn't sound like an unreasonable
 request, so why not just do that?

Robert, i don't really see the reason why this should be done.

 It's probably helpful to the maintainers to have a separate bug for each
 violation.  I can imagine that working with one [1] huge report while trying
 to actually fix stuff can be a PITA.

Well, i suppose that callign the reporter stupid, as max did is not
helpful also. Nor threatenenign me to be blacklisted from the BTS. Max
should really calm down, i know he is not agreeing with the firmware
split, but this doesn't allow him to be impolite and threatening.

I suppose the right way would be to split the bug report, and retitle it
for each actual violation case, but hey ...

 [1] well, actually a few merged reports, but it amounts to the same.

Sadly,

Sven Luther

  Stopping processing here.
 
 stop this game or i get you blacklisted on debian bug tracking system.

I do not like such threats when I havn't done anything wrong (according
to my knowledge).

I was acting exactly as you requested. IMHO you said that
reopening should be done only by maintainer or by someone with info
that bug had not been dealt with.

I'm not a maintainer, but I did have info that bug had not been
dealt with, so I reopened the bug with that info.

I fail to see any reason to threaten me with blacklisting.

IMHO it is you who should've been threatened with blacklisting if
anyone, since you have insisted on closing bugs which clearly havn't
been fixed.

If I did something wrong, IMHO the right response would've been to point
out my mistake to me, and not to threaten with blacklisting without
giving any reason for it.

 it is up to the maintainer to decide if that is closed or not.

If maintainer decides that bug must not be reopened anymore, that
should be mentioned in the bug-report.
