The forums are inundated with posts reporting bugs, and much too often, one can see two or three threads dedicated to the same bug. Worse yet, many people post dozens of bugs in the same post, mixed with their opinions on balance or suggestions for improvement. And finally, some people report bugs in threads that on the surface appear to be about balance, design, or whatever...
I would think that this makes it very hard for the developers to keep track of new bugs, and I know it makes it damn hard for me to tell whether the bug I am seeing has already been reported.
It would be wonderful if someone would make and keep updated a list of problems, categorized by type, severity, status, etc...
Am I volunteering? No. I just got hired for a new project, and come Wednesday, I'll disappear for at least a week for my own Death March. I would help in starting the list, of course.
I actually think that if no one from the community shoulders the responsibility, Startdock should task one of their people for it. It seems to me that without something like that, the developers cannot fully benefit from the Beta testers' efforts.
