Will this be the first one on which we see the status changed?

Hmmm. Bugs IS talk. Indeed, I'm thinking maybe it should just go to talk and switch it on on the left.

I can't seem to make a new bug. Clicking on the link brought up the light box. categorizing and hitting a button brought me back to the talk thread I was just on.

I'd have given this its own Bug thread but I can't seem to make a new bug.

It must be the dream of any entomologist.

>6 henkl:
"Make a bug" is the LT version of "report a bug" -- don't ask me why, I didn't name it.

I admit I don't seem to be able to create one of those new bug report thingies either.

5,9> As far as I've been able to tell, you go to or start a thread, do the 'Make a bug' thing and then the thread you were on becomes classified as a bug. It doesn't start a new topic

I didn't read it, I just tried it out and that's how it worked.

From New features: In-Talk Bug Tracking: Phase 1:
"...you can add bug-tracking status to existing bug threads."

Follow the "discuss" link for the discussion that lead up to it.

Not a bug. Feature is changing anyway.
