Congratulations,  If he had any doubts as to your productivity I could

The situation that I was looking at how to do sorts against all of the
mozillateams issues across all of the packages.

I prefer having a triager assign the bug to him or herself while
triaging it.  Then assigning it to mozillateam while it sits in the
queue.  Then having a developer assign it to him self while working on
it.

Maybe Simon has some ideas on how to set up such sorts.  It's easy to
sort against a single package but harder to sort against all of the
packages a team owns.  I would really like to be prover wrong here;)

Thanks
David
