Hi, and thanks for any help you can offer in reproducing these issues.
I've been whittling down the tickets for the past couple of weeks, but
mainly going for the easy marks -- spam, totally vague reports,
mistakes in the submitter's code, etc.

> Is there a process followed for trying to collect more information?

Often people report what they think are bugs, but don't provide enough
information to reproduce the problem. Usually someone on the jQuery
team will just ask for a test case that includes the minimal HTML and
script required to reproduce the problem, and the browsers where it
was tested.

In the case of #5264 the submitter marked it as a blocker, so that
isn't necessarily the opinion of the jQuery developers. At this point
it's hard for me to imagine that any IE6-specific bug is truly a
blocker.

If you have specific edits I can make them. Instead of using the
nightly, I prefer to pull it out of SVN and build it. The script that
builds the nightly doesn't seem to run reliably so building it
yourself is the best course of action.

Again, many thanks to you (and anyone else) for posting test cases,
testing on other platforms, or just confirming that you were able to
reproduce the problem or not. I have IE6 available in a VM but it's
not on the same system where I edit most of the jQuery tickets.
