This feature was rejected 5/26/2006: the idea is that we want bugs to be found and fixed -- the best way to do this is to encourage everyone to submit issues and watch them be fixed.

I dont think the bugs and problems forum is particularly enticing for newbies.  I dont think it should be visible to guests.  Why show off the problems with your site???

Of course, if you look at it another way, the fact that we have a board to discuss such things (and also the fact that the creator of the site will actually look at it!) might be an incentive. People will know they have a say in things, and that their problems will not be ignored.

True but their are many different things pointing to that (the forums article) so they know its there, they just cant see individual problems.  Also they know about private messaging which would be effective.

All software[*] has bugs - it's just unavoidable. So, the idea is that we want bugs to be found and fixed -- the best way to do this is to encourage everyone to submit issues and watch them be fixed.

[*] OK, so the following program is bug-free ... but you know what I mean.
10 PRINT "ALEXP IS COOL"
20 GOTO 10

Where would it print? I don't see where it would print so there would be a bug with that program.

That's not the problem. PRINT will just show it on screen. The only possible problem is that it will keep showing that text over and over, scrolling forever.
