I'm not trying to encourage you to fix them. I'm just trying to make sure we do not progress any further with those bugs still there as they are obvious release blockers. I don't see the point of advancing into the beta stage with such release blockers still there. I only "nag" about it after each step we take forward without fixing it.

You know my current state, that I'm currently completely away and swamped with things I'm supposed to do before I move to another country next week, so don't act so naive and suggest me to do things you know I just can't do. I'm doing what I can to help, and in my point of view, reminding people about big issues that should be blocking releases when releases are made anyway are very big help. Also, although my limited availability and general lack of free time I've been fixing bugs in e recently (haven't been hacking on my favourite parts of the EFL, but focused on e instead), so I really don't get what you are trying to say. Bottom line is: I'm just trying to make sure we don't release any beta versions before these issues are fixed. -- Tom. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Monitor your physical, virtual and cloud infrastructure from a single web console.
