You were probably doing the default search, which looks for NEW, ASSIGNED, REOPENED bugs only. The above numbers are about right for those states, but there are many other bugs in other states, mostly closed states. Don't be misled by "new" TC4 bugs: new is a state that does not reflect how long a bug has been in the system. Many of these are duplicates, invalid, don't contain enough information, etc, and we no longer care about them because TC4 is in maintenance mode. >Should I bother filing any more bugs? Are the TC developers using >another bug system? Are they using any bug system? Speaking of which, >who *is* developing Tomcat these days? We use bugzilla, and check it regularly. If you think you have a bug, file it after discussing on the mailing list (in case it's not a bug), and please make sure to provide a small example that makes it easy to reproduce the behavior you're seeing. Otherwise your issue might not get much attention, if any. As to who's developing tomcat: it's a transient set of people, except for Remy who's just the man ;) I personally have been spending more time on the commons side of things recently, and many other tomcat committers also move back and forth within projects. You can see who has commit privileges to the various tomcat repositories here: http://www.apache.org/~jim/committers.html Alternatively, look at the tomcat change log (http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-5.0-doc/changelog.html) and you can see who's been doing what for each 5.x stable release.
