Hey Joel, Yes i think a step by step process is a nice user friendly way to go. When Calligra Words crashed on me, their step by step bug report was fun to go through.
About your doc, here are some thoughts. 1) I'm assuming that many users coming to the BSA are coming through the Help > Send Feedback menu item and the libreoffice version number will be provided through this link, so the first question should be for the user to enter in the libreoffice version they are using and that the list be automatically set to the version present in the link. After the user selects his version, or simply clicks ok as his version is already selected, then either it takes him to the 'please upgrade your version' notice or step 2. 2) I think we should ask them to download the latest stable/still version if they are running an EOL version or if they are on an older version of the current stable/still. 3) Step 2 should be asking the user for his operating system, with that being automatically selected by means of javascript through the user's browser agent (florian already has that code). 3) Step 3 should be asking them if this is a bug report or an enhancement request and this step should be skipped if the user clicks the two different links on < http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/feedback/ >, as presently they link to the same page. 4) Step 4 is only for users who are submitting a bug report and that asks them if this bug had happened in a previous version and shows the version list with the first entry being something like "i'm not sure". 5) I think it would be great to have bug priority set by simple yes/no questions, but think that is the job of the QA team to set that feature, and a simple yes/no question of whether it hangs/crashes is sufficient for BSA bug reporters.
