I apologize... What is the issue exactly? Did you not receive
confirmations of emails that you filed? Did the server go out to lunch
mid-way through submitting the problem (and thus what you were entering
was lost)?
We definitely need to automate bug forwarding information: I know that
Linda would be as thrilled as all of you. I'll see if I can find someone
to do this for us soon.
FYI -- Once we have automated it, it will still take up to a few minutes
for you to get the confirmation as we don't have a way for the website
to interact directly with the bug database.
Thanks,
Karyn

Is there anything wrong with the bug reporting system
? I am missing now
five bug reports, including items like
- "lint" doesn't recognize "-xstrconst"
- getcwd() is slow as molasses
- ctfmerge as locale issues
- one security-related bug
and a 5th issue I totally forgot in the meanmtime
It would be really really nice to adjust the web form
to immediatly send
a confirmation email with the form contents to give
the people a
feedback that the information has been received and
that some kind of
"backup" of this information exists (in the form of
the email). I am
very unhappy since at least one bug report is
completely lost (I cannot
remember the issue anymore) and I've worked a hour on
the getcwd() thing
(which means the performace evaluation, background
and testcase is
LOST).
I wholeheartedly agree. I've taken to writing the whole thing out in a text
file before I file a bug, editing and revising it until I'm happy, and then
pasting the final version into the bug and then storing the text file away with
my patch code, etc.
... but this should not be neccesary. Loossing bug reports like this is
one of the WORST possible scenarious when dealing with customers. And
it's not the first time that this happened to bugs.opensolaris.org so
some action should be taken here...
