Just to build upon Alan's note about adding yourself to an existing bug, in a recent Ubuntu news the Launchpad guys had introduced a new "Me Too" tab to enable developers to gauge the quantity of users affected, without having to wade through lots of me too type notes.
Obviously if you wish to add further detail to an existing bug, you would still need to follow the normal process. To be honest, I'm going to be sitting with the Heron for a little while yet as from Mark Shuttleworth's original description of where he wanted Ubuntu to go, lots of new things were going to be added to this release, especially as it's also a catch up release after the LTS Heron, so I was kinda expecting a number of naughty things happening from initial release!

I have no idea why Ah even better. The original poster can subscribe to that bug and thus get notified of any workarounds (other than those already published). Personally i can think of another way to get the CD out, but that would require a reboot. > the developers decided to go ahead with release with this fairly critical bug (If you cant get a CD out of a drive, you aren't going > to stick with an OS for long (this thread is a good example of that). > Well from reading the link you posted it _is_ possible to get the CD out of the drive using the workaround published. I'm quite staggered that you think an entire OS release should be delayed for this! I personally use my CDROM drive once in a blue moon. I know each person has their own experience/issues with the system and has their own perception of the importance of those issues. But really, this one can't possibly be classed as "critical" by any sensible measure.
