I'll echo eadler a bit here, but with a different emphasis. What _I_ consider a trivial bug is based on my own past experiences with FreeBSD. Someone who is new to it and is submitting their first bug may not see it as trivial. We don't wish to discourage them. Discouraging people from contributing is counterproductive. We need more contributors, not less. I know for certain that people in the past have given up after submitting PRs that were never answered. While I know we don't have the manpower to deal with all of them, that should at least be our ideal. mcl
