one more question about filing bugs...
After filling in the required fields and any optional fields that I
think are helpful, is there something more I should do before clicking
the submit button? The past few bugs I've submitted seem to just stay
in the new state.
Some bugs are only triggered by a rare combination of events. A bug that
isn't reproducible or doesn't leave evidence behind won't get attention until
there are enough reports to define a pattern. It is important to highlight
anything that could help other victims of the same bug recognize that
from your report so patterns can be identified.
Such bugs are generally better handled upstream -- otherwise reports
of the same problem are scattered across different bug databases and
patterns aren't easy to recognize.
