2- ABRT should keep track of unresponsive users. If a user has an

shouldn't be able to send a new bug report through ABRT for my

Since this has turned into general pony request to the ABRT I shall
throw in one for the reporters
On behalf of all reporters that have never received a response from a
maintainer on a component they have reported against I not only ask the
ABRT maintainers to block any reports against those component that a
maintainer has not responded but I also request that those components
get removed from
bugzilla.redhat.com.
3- Ability to turn off ABRT for certain packages. Whenever I provide
an application package with no nonstandard patches and there is a
crash, it is most definitely not my fault. The user should be
instructed to take the backtrace upstream to the URL of the package
and report it in their bug tracker/mailing list. Even better, ABRT can
file the bug directly upstream. I am willing to provide the
information of upstream bug trackers/mailing lists for all of my
packages.
This confusion has been going on for enough of release cycles already
and I think it's time for FPC to step in and clarify what are the
maintainers/packagers responsibility towards the Fedora community and
it's user base to avoid any further rifts between QA members and
maintainers.
Either reporters report directly upstream always or to our own bug
tracking system which one is it?
