 Introduction
 
-    This PEP contains guidelines for handling bug reports to the
-    Python project at the tracker [1].  Still to be done is to collect
-    a list of people willing to handle bug reports and their areas of
-    expertise.
-
-    These are guidelines for the developers of Python, not the
-    submitters of bugs.  Those are at 
-
-        http://docs.python.org/bugs.html
-
-
-Guidelines
-
-    1. Make sure the bug category and bug group are correct.  If they
-       are correct, it is easier for someone interested in helping to
-       find out, say, what all the open Tkinter bugs are.
-
-    2. If it's a minor feature request that you don't plan to address
-       right away, add it to PEP 42 or ask the owner to add it for
-       you.  If you add the bug to PEP 42, mark the bug as "feature
-       request", "later", and "closed"; and add a comment to the bug
-       saying that this is the case (mentioning the PEP explicitly).
-
-       XXX do we prefer the tracker or PEP 42?
-
-    3. Assign the bug a reasonable priority.  We don't yet have a
-       clear sense of what each priority should mean.  One rule,
-       however, is that bugs with priority "urgent" or higher must
-       be fixed before the next release.
-
-    4. If a bug report doesn't have enough information to allow you to
-       reproduce or diagnose it, ask the original submitter for more
-       information.  If the original report is really thin and your
-       email doesn't get a response after a reasonable waiting period,
-       you can close the bug.
-
-    5. If you fix a bug, mark the status as "Fixed" and close it.  In
-       the comments, include the SVN revision numbers of the commit(s).
-       In the SVN checkin message, include the issue number *and* a
-       normal description of the change, mentioning the contributor
-       if a patch was applied.
-
-    6. If you are assigned a bug that you are unable to deal with,
-       assign it to someone else if you think they will be able to
-       deal with it, otherwise it's probably best to unassign it.
