>Organization:
Meyer Consulting
>Environment:

	The file created by send-pr to edit.

>Description:

	It's generally easier to make the first selection than any
	other when doing a pr. This means that, in particular, tagging
	soemthing as "confidential" when it doesn't need to be is a
	common occurence (at least for me).

>How-To-Repeat:

	Actually, you can't. However, a survey of confidential PR's
	(which I don't believe I can see) would be interesting to see
	if my observation is true in general, or it's just me.

>Fix:

	Change "confidential" to "public". Also change the code that
	reads these on the far end to detect "public"
	vs. "confidential", and set things accordingly. I can't
	provide a patch for that, as I'm not sure I have sources.

State-Changed-Why:  
You're right.  Usually somebody will go through the confidential 
PR's every now and then and fix them. 

Our GNATS sources are not secret as far as I know, 
and an active maintainer would be most welcome :-)
