Your statements about correlations seem to be based on your opinions and anecdotal evidence, rather than data. IMHO, there are two important criteria that should be used to evaluate the quality of the bug reporting system 1. Bugs get reported in a timely fashion 2. Bugs get fixed in a timely fashion The amount of noise in the system is really a secondary concern if it leads to bugs getting reported faster and fixed faster. --Adam -- Adam McKenna <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
