AFAIUI the rule is that the CHR person dispatches bugs filed against
"launchpad" to the right application (but does not triage them) while the team
leads triages all bugs for the particular application.

So, all team leads should be doing that and I believe they are. I am not aware
of the timeout policy but if that is so, I am sure Danilo did not mean to
exempt rosetta from that exemption ... ;-) If that means the bug will
automatically be triaged to "Critical", it would get his attention anyway.

Well, for the time that Danilo was away in June he gave that responsibility to
me. I don't know if he remembered to do so for last week. ;-) But the traffic
is quite low, only four new bugs for rosetta atm.
