What you can do is to add your test result as a comment to the bug you're evaluating. For more recent bugs most developers will see those comments automatically as they are following the default assignees. For older bugs this is not always the case because those used to be assigned to individual developers. To inform the developers (and other interested followers) of your progress it may be interesting the report your activities from time to time on the gnucash-devel list. Me or another developer can then take the needed actions. I'm looking forward to your work :) Geert _______________________________________________ gnucash-devel mailing list gnucash-devel@gnucash.org https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-devel
