The selection criteria are:
    Product LibreOffice
    status NEW
    commenter contains qa-admin at libreoffice.org
The query returned 283 bugs.  A couple of points:

(1) I think this will capture subsequently-changed bugs which have
    received an automated message, for example a message about
    longstanding NEEDINFO status.  For comparison, a few minutes later
    I get 280 bugs from the query
        Product LibreOffice 
        Status NEW
        Comment contains exact string "reporters and confirmers to retest open"

(2) I notice that Alex Thurgood on Saturday added himself to the cc
    field of lots of bug reports with component Database.  And the 283
    bugs from Joel's query do not have any with component Database.

    Alex,
    
    Do you want this bunch of bugs excluded from the "ping"?

HTH,
Terry.
