For the record why is it generally believed that triagers are more
qualified than reporters
to change the severity or the priority of the report?
Secondly the developer(s)/maintainer(s) of the component are the only
one(s) capable of assessing the
severity of the report and thus adjust priorities to his/their
time/workload accordingly based on the content of that report.
The only exceptions to the above are...
Their employ ( You dont fix you dont get paid )
Their sex partner ( You dont fix you dont get laid )
wwoods, f13 and selective few others that have the ability to make
heavens wrath rain upon them or just
( more likely ) know all the dirty little secrets or have some other
bargaining chip ( booze ) up their sleeve..
