# Summary of pending email for GNU tar 1.12.
# Last updated on 1997-04-25.

# This file summarizes almost all pending email pertaining to this
# package.  I think that users deserve to know where maintenance
# stands for what they use.  Ignorance might be more comfortable :-)
# If commercial companies were indeed publishing their own internal
# bug lists, you might feel far more secure with GNU software!

# Please be kind and avoid pushy re-submissions of unsolved problems.
# When I will process a report from you, you may reasonably expect
# some feedback from me.  Until then, please consider that it is
# not always practical, nor fair for the community, to withhold a
# release until all reported problems are solved.  I have to draw
# a line somewhere, and still make releases once in a while.

# When diffs have been provided, an asterisk replaces the initial dot.
# All dates are written according to ISO 8601, as far as possible.
