Documentation bugs are bugs in the software, not the website. "Feature X does not work as documented" and "Feature X is not documented as it works (or at all)" are EXACTLY THE SAME as far as the user of the feature are concerned. An excellent feature, that is not documented, is useless and is effectively missing. I care as little about whether the problem is found to be in the software or the documentation as I do about whether the bug is file_a.c or file_b.c. Personally I am not particularly keen on the web site bugs having been removed from the bug jar -- I would prefer to see them have their own section but the metrics that the bug jar shows are just as important for web site bugs. In particular, ones owned by Nokia (as opposed to the community) should be tracked in the bug jar.

When I reported it I tried to file it in "Maemo Software -> Documentation" then "Maemo Software -> Development platform" but did not find any suitable component. At last I simply clicked link "Improve this page" on the bottom of http://maemo.org/development/documentation/tutorials/maemo_4-0_tutorial.html I was not happy about the Website category from the beginning but now I see there is additional disadvantage of being lost in the noise :-) Frantisek ___ maemo-developers mailing list maemo-developers@maemo.org https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-developers

IMNSHO it's a bug against the library documentation. If the documentation included this information and it wasn't visible on the site - that would be a website bug. David - who thinks that documentation bugs should be a higher priority than anything except *maybe* a remote root exploit. Maybe. ___ maemo-developers mailing list maemo-developers@maemo.org https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-developers
