I've only been back from holiday a day and I already feel like I'm burning out triaging the #qemu bug tracker. The flood of #llm assisted bug reports is not actually very helpful to the project even if they are real bugs. Just reporting more isn't going to help get the others fixed any faster.

It's been a while since #qemu put its original #llm contribution policy in place. It's now time to re-evaluate the policy and potentially update it:

Finally finished by issue triage marathon for #QEMU and we now have zero untagged issues. Of course that doesn't mean they are fixed (as of today we have 1271 open issues) but now hopefully it is easier to ensure bugs get routed to the right people.
