We ask that they go in bugzilla just because just for bookeeping purposes and so that it doesnt get lost and forgotten. Though at time bugzilla is neglected. I will try to keep up with you on the reports that you send it. Im sorry I didnt do a better job in the past, I forgot about that bug. Also, if you are in irc and something is small fix that you dont want to report to bugzilla, im usually in there and mostly I have time here and there to fix things throughout the day.
Hey Brandon,
I wasn't targetting anyone in particular with that post, so I hope I haven't offended you or anyone else. I just noticed that the bug was still open when I checked how I reported them previously. I know the developers are always stretched in that they want to always implement new code to improve the functionality of ReactOS. I don't think there will be a flood of bugs filed as it will be a slow process, so don't worry about that. :)
Everything of a significant size will go through bugzilla. I just wasn't sure about how I should report them to it. Some other projects like every single instance of every bug to be filed under a different bug number. I can see why they like this method but I think it can be unhelpful. If no one suggests otherwise I'll use my original suggested method.
Thanks for the replies so far, they've been very helpful as I'm not *really* familiar with the code yet.
Martin
