Flash Player Public Bugbase Introduced

Today, Adobe's Flash Player team introduced the new public bug and issue tracking system. This replaces the old wishform where you submitted bugs and enhancement requests but could not track the issue's progress. The new system is based on the same JIRA issue tracking system already in use by the Flex and Core ActionScript teams. This means that you will be able to first search to see whether someone has already reported the issue. If you find that someone has done so, you can vote for that issue to raise its visibility. Thereafter, you can track the issue's progress. Here's the official announcement of the page and another link to the page itself:

Comments

I think this is one of the most significant improvements they've made to the Flash platform. The previous system created an offensive barrier between the company and the developers using Flash.
