I've seen some good triaging work by nullack lately. He is an active triager and a regular of #ubuntu-bugs where he checks back often to get opinions of others. > Example One: > > https://bugs.launchpad.net/network-manager/+bug/258743 > > http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=548114 Please don't confirm you own bugs.

Again, nice work. Not only reporting issues but also see if there is any change in the upstream bugtrackers is a necessary part of triaging. > The importance is correctly set at high due to the > estimated small number of users who would edit the conf file manually > to set network configuration items.

Agreed. > Please consider, thanks Do you have any more bugs where you've done basic triaging work like requesting information from submitter, file upstream reports and so on? - From the bugs you brought as an example here, you reported 3 of them yourself and did little actual triaging. Nonetheless, your work on the bugs was great, but personally I would like to see some more triaged bugs. If you can provide some, it's a +1 by me for your application. Thanks for all your work.
