Reported-by and tested-by signatures in the git history commit /are/ in fact random WRT getting a list of handlers/ reviewers of a new patch. It is more likely that reporters and testers cannot or/and do not want to do anything about such a patch. Such a mailing is called UBE. -- Stefan Richter -=====-==-=- -=-= -=--= http://arcgraph.de/sr/
