It's cut into the 3 patches I shared this morning on the security list (plus two typos fixed and a paragraph asking for one single issue per report): - one patch that reminds our need for a valid e-mail address - one that explains to reporters how to proceed to find maintainers addresses, hoping we won't have to do it for 90% of reports anymore - one that enumerates basic requirements for every report I think it covers the difficulties we've faced this week. As always, we might possibly find tiny adjustments to add, but my goal would be for such updates to be merged in time to update the public page ASAP so that we can redirect incomplete reports in an attempt to lower the team's current load. Thanks!
