The few times I've tried to NAK something outright, I've always tried to attach plenty of technical explanation (usually of the form "Gaak, this oopses my laptop") :), and cc: the relevant important_name, and hope they listen.
Fortunately, most of the time I can get away with a politely phrased variation of "important_name would probably appreciate if you fixed XYZ and resubmitted" comment.. ;) [unhandled content-type:application/pgp-signature] | |
