Re: What if ONLY the QA Team could report bugs?

Only problem is that we don't know _which_ 50% is it :) ZG>> We could try this out simply by sitting on the php-dev list and reviewing ZG>> each bug report as the report is submitted. Good idea. You could also mark it as "analyzed" or something alike and/or solicit feedback from users when data is incomplete and/or produce short (and I mean short - some users submit 5k scripts with DB accesses etc. - though most problems can be reproduced under 10 lines of code) reproducing script. This would make fixing much faster - as soon as you definitely know where the problem is, many chances somebody knows what's the problem (after all, somebody wrote that code ;) -- Stanislav Malyshev stas@zend.com +972-3-6139665
