Re: Bug Tracker Guidelines

 

Just another note here:

Once a bug has the "Fix Committed" status, and the fix has been verified via
comments on the bug by users of both Linux / Windows, the status should be
changed to "Fix Released". This will cause the bug to stop appearing in the
list. Chances are, I'll personally handle this responsibility, but just a
heads up about how the process works.
