Bug needs help
There is a long-standing RC bug libglide2: Reproducible segmentation fault with Voodoo2 where it is easy to reproduce this bug if you have the hardware (warning: it will crash your computer), but - well, it just needs to be done.

What maintaining means
During my cruise through release critical bugs, one sometimes wonder how often "team" should be translated with "toll, ein anderer macht's" (great, someone else will do it).

Looking at bugs like e.g. #399589 - asterisk-oh323: Asterisk OH-323 crashes latest asterisk package, it doesn't seem to demanding to expect also in a team-maintained environment that any of the maintainers recheck (or at least send mail) to the person reporting the bug within a week. However, the bug was reported on November 20th (that's a Monday), and nothing happend up to now from their side - means: Nothing within 11 days. Unfortunatly, there are more so buggy packages from the VoIP-Team - most can just be moved out from Etch, but it is always unsatisfactory to remove packages.
