That was my feeling as well, just wanted a second opinion since i'm new here and just a volunteer --- This might be my second time (second report) in as many days asking whether a bug report should be closed and/or marked invalid. Last time i asked, it was marked invalid (I asked last night, it was closed invalid this afternoon). My opinion is if it's marked as invalid (with the comment on the bug report i left describing, perhaps, why), that's one less report to look at when we're filtering through the problems that remain for actual ones. -Rob _______________________________________________ Mono-devel-list mailing list Mono-devel-list@lists.ximian.com http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/mono-devel-list
