This is dangerous because if a bug has been closed due to a lack of feedback from the original submitter, we will lose this new user who may be able to help us track down the problem. The implication here is probably that bugs closed due to lack of feedback should have a different closed tag - it may appear closed when displayed in the bug database, but we could use the tag in this situation to allow the bug to be 'unclosed' and possibly change the name of the submitter to the new person so that feedback requests go to the correct person. >Please enter your server configuration file (or for IIS, the script mapping for your script directory) It might be worth having another text area for 'error log information', for example, on NT, the event viewer log often yields extra useful information.
