Yeah, but you're not answering the question I'm asking, Brion.  The issue, as
I understood it, was "how did this bug (which was not Jay's :-) get lost in 
the shuffle?"

My followup question was: "is there someone's whose job is to keep track of
that?"  Mark's job, as you describe it, is triage, not followup.  Is it *also*
followup?  Or has that task not been assigned?

Cheers,
