Current Bug Reports listing?

Good evening -

I was just wondering if there was a place that currently lists all reported bugs that exist in the latest version of SageTV, specifically the latest beta. I think it would be nice to have one specific list that one could check to see if they're issue is already known and potentially fixed before needing to submit a bug report. Perhaps each incident could have a status of something like:
- Known bug
- Need additional information from other users experiencing problem
- Fixed in V 6.12

Any thoughts, guys?

Some sort of bug tracker would be a brilliant idea. Saves time for users and the devs!

It has always been Sage's policy to deal with bugs privately -- even for betas.

The disadvantage of a public bug tracking system is that Sage does not see the difference between a bug that affects one person and a bug that affects several, but only one has reported it (and the rest see that it has already been reported).

(yes I know that if a bug system is used properly, this will not occur, but how many times in the forums do you see people complainign about a 'known' bug that actually noone ever reported?!)

Not to mention people who say "I have the EXACT SAME problem" and then go on to describe something completely different. Similar symptoms don't necessarily have the same underlying cause. It's probably best to collect as many bug reports as possible and let the professionals decide whether two reports actually describe the same bug.

Not to mention that the multiple reports could allow Sage to track it down to certain types of hardware or codecs.
