I am not saying and have not said that you needed to drop everything
you were doing and fix it right now. Had you said, "I will get a
patch for this out this week", that would have been fine with me.
What I did and do object to is that your commitment to fix it was
completely open-ended. From reading your email, there's no way for
someone to know whether you'll get to this in two days or a month, and
a month, at least in my opinion, is too long, maybe at any time but
certainly at this point in the release cycle.

I think this comment is a little snide, but it deserves a serious
response. I spent most of yesterday afternoon and evening working on
every open item that I had a clue about, and another two hours this
morning. Most of the remaining items are either things that I am not
qualified to fix or for which there are currently patches out for
comment.
