Could someone please tell me if I posted this in the right place? I did read this guide on the Issue Tracker: https://geoserver.org/issues/.
I'm not sure if it qualifies as a bug, and the guide says if in doubt, post to the mailing list. So I did. Will anyone take notice of my post here, and correct the misleading message (or at least provide feedback that it wont be corrected for whatever reason)? :) Or should I in fact post this to the issue tracker? Or a different mailing list?
