Not really a nice comment but a real issue?

I am informed that, for no reason given, the corporate IT folks will not 
allow attachment upload.

Attempts over the years to persuade them otherwise have failed.

The best suggestion is you upload it somewhere else and include the link 
in the bug report and
the Oracle reviewer can grab it.

I've suggested we add that suggestion - at least to the FAQ item about 
attachments - if not
more prominently.
