In the PHP section of the portstree i receive regular mails where the senders are not even aware of the bugzilla. And when made aware they just do not use it. No PR just mean "No one with enough knowledge about the FreeBSD infrastructure and sufficient free time and enough self-confidence has written a PR". Not all of our users are as good as we are. We should never forget about this. Best, Torsten
