116 We have an online bug tracker. Using this is the only way to ensure
117 that your bugs are recorded and that we can track them until they are
118 resolved or closed. Reporting bugs via email, while easy, is not very
119 useful in terms of accountability. Please point your browser to
120 http://bugs.pilot-link.org: http://bugs.pilot-link.org and report your
121 bugs and issues there.
