2012-03-10 Thread Karol Blazewicz
I can assume that 'Please enter summary' text was included in the bug report template to remind people they should enter a summary of the bug they're reporting and not just tag it with e.g. '[arptables]'. I don't know when exactly was this introduced, but in the past month I've noticed several bug
