[Gvsig_english] Bug reporting, 3D extension

Fri Dec 30 13:24:29 CET 2011

I think mailing lists is different from bug reporting.
That said, I think bug tracker can be open (not registration required), 
and see if we receive too many bad tickets (I mean poor documented and 
so on). If so, ask for registration.

On the other side, I would recommend to register if you are really 
interested, because you will receive information about how the bug is 
corrected. Or it can be a point of contact with the developer to ask for 
clarifications, and so on.

My two cents on this.

Best regards, and Happy New Year for all!!.

Fran.
