Should we also send out their password when we remind them to update their bugs? Say bi-monthly or monthly.

If you have not submitted a bug report before, then a new account will be created for you. This account will allow you to modify the bug reports that you submit. Confirmation of your account creation, along with your chosen password and name will be emailed to you. Step 2: Bug Overview -------------------- The bug overview step allows us to gather basic information about the bug. This information is used to: * Search for problems that are similar to yours * Offer possible solutions to your problem * Determine what questions to ask you about the bug Were you able to install PHP? [ ] Yes [ ] No

True :)

These enhancements were meant dev-only, but we can change them afterwards surely, because the user isn´t serveral times in the position to decided this, keep it anyway this way. You´ve obscured my SCOPE proposal, it was meant for helping devs only to calculate the time needed to fix the bug, add this:

I have not included Scope in the Guided bug reporting system - how the heck do most people evaluate this. If they are able to do this, then they should be using the advanced editor.

Scope of fixing: - Large, serious rewrites/changes/thinking needed - Medium, imporant changes on one or more components needed - Small, trivial fix good work

Our good work! Zak
