Subject: RE: bug#25: Acknowledgement (frame parameter menu-bar-lines changes height of frame)
Date: Fri, 29 Feb 2008 07:21:00 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <003301c87ae6$b2175740$0600a8c0@us.oracle.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <handler.25.B.12042761599705.ack@emacsbugs.donarmstrong.com>

Uh, why are we getting such emails?

And why does it say to submit further info about the bug to
"25@emacsbugs.donarmstrong.com, as before." As before?

We should be able to keep the same thread as the original bug-report mail,
and reply to that, _as before_. Same thread, subject line, reply-to, etc. We
should continue to be able to sort mails by thread, sender, etc. in our mail
clients, and not have a thread get split into different subjects, addresses,
etc.

Also, there is no inclusion of the original bug report, and no mention of
the date it was filed (10 months ago, in this case - so much for "Thank you
for filing a new bug report"). Instead, there is a URL to a Web site - not
equivalent.

This is not an improvement for users, IMO. Please keep email about a bug
within a single thread. If you want to also mirror part of that thread
invisibly to some bug-report backend, then do so, but please don't confuse
users this way.

Thx.
