# Summary of pending email for GNU tar 1.11.8.
# Last updated: Saturday, June 17, 1995.
#
# You may use this BACKLOG file for checking if I still have an
# unprocessed report of yours, or just to have a feeling of how
# this package is evolving (or not :-). Please be kind enough to
# check here before reporting again a problem that is not solved
# in this release.
#
# When I will process a report from you, you may reasonably count
# on the fact that I will give you some feedback at that time.
# By merely re-sending a report I already have, you are just putting
# more burden on my shoulders, and surely not making things go
# any faster.
#
# I could of course withhold a release until all reported problems
# are solved. This would not always be practical, nor fair for
# the community, when some of all reported bugs are solved indeed.
# So I have to cut the pear in halves, draw a line somewhere, and
# still make releases once in a while.
#
# About the principle of the BACKLOG file itself, my opinion is that
# users deserve to know where maintenance stands for what they use.
# Ignorance is sometimes more comfortable, but does not change facts.
# If commercial companies were indeed publishing their own internal
# bug lists, I think you would feel more secure with GNU software!
