Well Eugene.. it looks like your post was removed also. We are wondering if it is automatic when a bug is deemed "bogus" or if there is some other reason.. But then again it takes awhile for it to be removed.. so if it was a script that does it, Im not sure why it would take that long to run.. I really have no clue of what's going on.. and so far only one person on OS X, Mr. Blanchard himself, has not had this problem.. as far as I know. So I don't think they would be ignoring this.. I would be curious to hear what Rasmus had to say.. since I think he would know the innerworkings of php plus the bugs.php.net site.. Anyways hopefully something can be figured out!

It is usually wiser to stand up to a scary-seeming experience and walk right into it, risking the bruises as hard knocks. You are likely to find it is not as tough as you had thought. Or you may find it plenty tough, but also discover you have what it takes to handle it." - Norman Vincent Peale -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
