>Microsoft never asked the UT not to list bugs. What we said is that it is not the way we track bugs and that the proper way for people to submit bugs to actually have them be fixed in the future is through our Microsoft support web site. You, the UT, or anyone is free to post anything you want and create any list you want.

>If you or anyone created a list, it would just be the same as a list of postings here, and nothing would be validated. Meaning, someone could post something that they think is a bug but is really something that is their mistake, by design, or just incorrect. So the list would not be all that meaningful and possible harmful to those who read it since it might not contain accurate information.

Thank you for responding. I think a Bug List, or maybe better named Suspected Bug List, would be helpful to people here on the UT. There is some delay in the time the bug is submitted to MS and the time it is added to the Knowledge Base. That time does make a difference to developers. If someone posts a suspected bug that is theirs mistake, by design, or just incorrect, we can always take it off. As the Wish List helps the community, I think a Suspected Bug List would help the community too.
