I didn't refuse, I said it wasn't relevant.  I also offered to provide  
the list and hardware and time resources for testing if any developer  
needed it after June 11 (ie when it was physically possible to do so)  
for anyone who wanted to chase the individual issues.  But the  
individual issues aren't the problem.  No single problem would usually  
warrant that kind of attention.  It's the overall amount of issues  
that concerns me.

Perhaps answer the question which was asked, instead of trying to drag  
the conversation down into specific bug reports?  No single specific  
bug report is relevant to the overall topic.  Fixing a single bug  
won't improve the situation.

Anyway, I've said this a dozen times now so I won't be repeating it.   
You are welcome to continue ignoring it.
