Hi Eliot,

Mantis TRACKS bugs. If your contribution is important,
then it is important to have it on the appropriate
report. That gives it visibility and permanance and
allows it to be found when future variations of the
problem arise. There is also information in the report
that it is important (to harvesters) to know you have
seen and taken into account in your contribution.

While it may seem strange to treat your contribution
as unfinished when you were nice enough to make it and
send it along, please realize that others are also
providing self-funded time and effort. They are doing
this in greater quantities than you or I. So a little
bit of effort on our part to take the burden off of
them is important.  Edgar has the role of workhorse on
the release team. His efforts need to be respected and
aided. Thanks for your understanding.

Yours in service, --Jerome Peace


the particular report is at:

http://bugs.squeak.org/view.php?id=6576
Summary		0006576: Delay is not thread-safe	

as for the rest here are the Faqs:

FAQ: Is this a known issue ? Where is the place to
report bugs (or check if 
some have already been raised) ?

The best place for this info would be to start a
Mantis report. (You can get a mantis acct freely and
easily). 

A good place to start is:

http://bugs.squeak.org/my_view_page.php

Mantis provides a patient persistent way to focus on
an issue.
I use it to accumulate data on a problem until a
solution can be found.
It provides a place to alert the community to a
problem; 
-accumulate facts and clues from the analysis;
-publish preposed solutions and get feedback;
-get solutions harvested and included into the main
stream.

This FAQ is available at the Squeak wiki site.
