I'd better not write mine. </sarcasm> You are seriously confusing the bugsquad in general with the developers of an app in particular. While bug 348037 was pretty much fun to read, this is not. Also, you just insulted me (well the entire bugsquad) who are doing all this work on a volunteer basis. You do realize all I get for this work is your fucking comment and attitude, right? Kindly take your personal opinion elsewhere.
Interesting side note: According to the reported version, you are still using Evolution and Evolution-Exchange 2.6.0, as shipped with FC5 install media. However, there are updates available by FC5. Packages for the entire Evo 2.6.2 stack are available from a FC update mirror near you for 7 weeks already. How could you possibly expect any issue to be fixed, without updating?
dear herbert, thanks for taking the time to report this. i really appreciate your detailed description on how to reproduce this bug and your will to help microsoft improving their impressive software. if you find some spare time between two rants, please report this bug to the fedora bug tracking system also. have fun, and get an up-to-date version by the way. your good ol' andre *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 344196 ***

To follow up on Karten. Contructive comments regarding actual bugs are appreciated. Rants are not. Crashers are frustating, but there is nothing that bugsquad can do about it. More developers would be nice and are wanted. If you want to discuss process issues with the developers, use a mailinglist. Bugzilla is stricly about the actual bugs/enhancements (eg.. how to reproduce solve them, not about comparing developers to idiots). Failing to show common courtesy may result in your Bugzilla account being disabled. See also http://live.gnome.org/CodeOfConduct
