Ah, now I see what happened.  I did raise a ticket in the admin-trac,
and since we use Trac a lot at my work and in the nslu2-linux project, I
expected it to send me email on ticket state changes.  It didn't, so I
assumed nothing had happened (my incorrect assumption).

BTW, I can show you guys how to set up Trac so that you can issue all
the developers an SSL client certificate (which you can use in a lot of
places instead of username and password) and it automatically logs them
into trac using their email address so they automatically get emails
when the tickets change state ...
