My current listing of bugs reported are under 10 items. i am sure that
there are many floating around that have ong been resolved but I lost
track of where they were filed. some of these improvments will clear
room for the developers to do acual bug resolving by reducing the
"never mind, it is fixed now" bugs thst are part of the clutter. Better
tracking of bugs individuals file will help things along a lot.
Bugzilla in general has improves a lot from where it was a short time
back. I am sure the trend will continue.
For this thread in general, FC3 is now legacy and cleaning out the
bugzilla outstanding bug load is one of the better aspects with it
transferring hands for responsibility for keeping it a secure release.
Dedication for keeping FC3 updated pretty much in sync with FC4 updates
helped to make its transition to legacy a well maintained version.
