[QUOTE="elliottmc, post: 338446, member: 14268"] I'm not convinced about the wisdom of opening up the bug tracking system to the public. This would result in hundreds of false bug reports which would clutter things up for everyone, and increase the workload on the team. That's why I suggested a policy of moving non-reproducible bugs and reproduced bugs to different places in the forum so that users can see what is actually going on. No sense leaving a bug report in the forum if it is genuinely the fault of the reporter, and if three other people have tried and failed to reproduce it. And bugs moved and then found to be reproducible can always be moved back. The simple fact is that MP is very complex, and supports numerous hardware configurations with many different driver versions. It's not surprising that there are many false bug reports, and also that many real bug reports slip through the net. However, we as a community have to do what we can to help the development team. Best wishes, Mark [/QUOTE]
