Hi, Greg:
I'm sorry about that -- a few people wanted to use the "whine" option, which required that I turn the functionality on. In turn, this annoyed everyone with bugs assigned to it.
Let me see if setting "whinedays" to "0" will turn off the automated whines while letting people set up custom whines as they needed. If that doesn't work, then I'll set "whinedays" to 3650, so at least this way the only bugs you'll get whines about will be those that have been "NEW" for over 10 years. :)
