if you're not willing to participate in the managed handling of a bug, i'm
not interested in your bug.

of course, someone else might be, in which case you get lucky.

Please don't write things like that in a way that could make people
believe it's a general attitude.

OK, let me very clear. That is MY attitude. For ARDOUR.

There are almost 1500 bugs still open at tracker.ardour.org. Anyone who expects me (or anyone) to manage that number of bugs via email is someone who has expectations of me that will not be met. Moreover, many bug fixes involve totally asynchronous communication the bug reporter and/or other people interested in the bug. I see no sensible way to work in this way without the coordination that a bug tracker brings.
