my 2 cents
until you guys go gold (ouf of beta), leaving stuff to help Troubleshooting /
reporting bugs for us testers is A Good Thing. I havent checked but the first
page of haiku manual during the alpha beta stage should be about how to report
bugs and crashes. I've been on beos for 10+ years on and off and can imagine
the culture shock for a guy who has never used haiku at all but is interested
enough to download and install. keep bug reporting easy for the regular guy.
cheers,
sami
