Re: [Fwd: a request for gnome bugzilla data]

[Minghui Zhou <zhmh pku edu cn>]

Dear Olav,

Apologies for bringing up this matter again!

I understand your lack of time, I was wondering, if there is any chance
we could help with the dump?
 
If you happen to have a bit time, please see the last comment in
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=693295 for the work we have
tried. If it's possible, we'd like some guidance about how to proceed.


Thank you,  Minghui
