Hi, this goes mainly to puppetlabs, but I don''t feel it''s quite fit for the dev list, so here goes. A couple of weeks ago, I updated http://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/593 with a proposed fix. I only now realized that there is *no* PuppetLabs employee either watching the bug or assigned to handle it. What''s the official stance on this sort of thing? What happens to bugs that aren''t assigned to a developer? Who should be contacted if such things are noticed, as happened here? Also, has the "fixing cron initiative" been abandoned for greater goals? Because if that''s part of a trend, I''d find that disturbing. Thanks in advance for shedding some light.

I guess I jumped to conclusions from the lack of any reactions. Do you suspect it''s worthwhile to keep bugging (no pun intended) whomever it may concern via issue updates?

So commenting on them and asking for updates might ping someone into action or increase their view of importance of the issue, even just people saying they also have the problem and showing some code or logs from recent versions of puppet would be useful. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.

Alternatively, you can buy a support contract and mandate that it be fixed.

Felix, since you have a fix (as you noted in the ticket), why don''t you open a pull request and change the status of the bug to in topic branch pending review. That will also certainly get the issue noticed.
