Bugtracker simplified

[Tom]

I've stripped out lots of not-very-much-used fields from the bugtracker to streamline and hopefully improve the bug reporting process.

Categories are now in more user-friendly terms, the old categories were often wrong anyways.

Priority, severity and reproducibility are all gone. We didn't really use them seriously, and reporters frankly abused them in too many cases, labelling things as "crash" and "major" that affected only their characters, etc.

Not having to worry about these things should make things a ton easier for everyone.

The downside is that most of the current bugs now have "No Category". *shrug*

Nice. one thing--I monitor some items that catch my eye, but when I "end monitoring", I still get emailed updates on the items.

Should I report a bug tracker bug to the bug tracker?  ;D

It's really not a big deal, just wondering a version upgrade would make the "end monitoring" functionality work.

Do you have an example, so I can look?

I shouldn't have gotten the email on the 14th, but I did.
