+<PRE>Hi,
+
+In bugzilla, many bugs were wainting for package to have maintainers. No the
+triage team is going to assign bug requests to the package maintainer, only
+way to avoid those bugs sitting forever in untriaged state.
+
+It doesn't mean that the maintainer is the only person able to fix the bugs, so
+feel free to help maintainers for any bugfix or enhancement request. However,
+the maintainer is responsible for the package, so having bugs assigned to
+him/her means that the maintainer manages a pool of bug reports and must try
+to have them fixed :
+- by himself/herself
+- by someone else (ask to a fellow packager, to an apprentice, to mageia-dev
+ML...)
+
+Being the Assignee of the bug means you are the person who cares about it, and
+tries to find ways to make the bug fixed.
+
+Bugs and enhancement requests to mageia-specific tools (our version of urpmi,
+of the drakxtools, etc.) are a special case because we are the upstream, so
+there's a likelyhood that their bug report count will be higher than many
+other packages (&quot;distro&quot; bugs + &quot;developer&quot; bugs). Maybe we should treat them
+in a different way, but I don't know how for now.
+
+Once all the bugs against packages that have maintainers have been triaged,
+then we will have a better picture and will be able to think of improvements
+to the way bug reports are handled.
+
+Best regards
+
+Samuel Verschelde
+by derogation from Triage team :)
