 I'm sorry. I did it in the past, but I'm not doing it now. This ticket is
 2 months old, so it was during the time when I did assignments.

 Historically it had the following reason. Long time ago I noticed that
 some tor browser tickets do not get any attention or replies for years if
 they are not assigned and nobody is in cc. If such tickets get cc or
 assignment, they immediately get some feedback from tor team. I
 extrapolated this property from tor browser tickets to all tor tickets,
 which it was wrong, because core tor tickets are managed properly and in
 time. Thanks for that.
