Python crashes include Traceback.txt so that too.

This seems fine.

There isn't anything particularly interesting about the work on this
bug.

While adding the link to the exact image was useful I didn't find the
work here very compelling.

This seems fine.

Other than the change from Triaged to Confirmed this too seems fine.

I would give this a +0 based off the work I've seen in the bugs you gave
us.  However, an Ubuntu developer has vouched for you and your work,
which is an acceptable method for joining Bug Control, so I am approving
your membership in the team.

Additionally, your application has brought up a couple of interesting
points (Do Ubuntu bug tasks need to appear in an application?) and (How
can we help people find their best bugs?) which I've started discussions
on and think having answers for will help us in the future.
