Is there an error on the report or the maintainers do not use to accept the tickets? I find this information very useful, if it states that the maintainer accept to take care of this ticket.
I think the feature is at best underused.
I find it more like it's not really that useful a feature, accepting tickets that is, for Boost as there is small to no overlap in working in bugs. It's more useful for components that have multiple people working on them as a way to coordinate who works on tickets. For example I've used it to tell Volodya that I'm working on some tickets for Boost Build/bjam. But it doesn't really make much sense, as a single author, to tell yourself you are working on a ticket.
I see it as a notice to the world that you have looked at a bug and decided that it is valid.
Hm.. But I thought a bug was not valid.. Wouldn't I just close it as invalid? Hence I was under the impression that accepting a ticket was more than just saying you looked at it without "deleting" it. -- -- Grafik - Don't Assume Anything -- Redshift Software, Inc. - http://redshift-software.com -- rrivera/acm.org (msn) - grafik/redshift-software.com -- 102708583/icq - grafikrobot/aim,yahoo,skype,efnet,gmail
