Sorry to hear you believe there was some kind of attitude there. That is certainly not my intention. Given the chasing of fixes, this tends to indicate you are waiting for them. When running a beta, you should always expect its going to be in the next release. If not the next couple of releases.
Allow me to explain. We have many many bugs being reported. Some of which are large bugs, some of which are oversights, and some of which will have unintended consequences upon other items of what is a very new product. I am not a developer on the product myself, and the developers are very busy resolving bugs and doing updates for a major release. So it will not always be possible for me to answer the question, other than exactly what was stated above.
We would not provide interim fixes. These need to be tested individually, and then tested with the product as a whole. One change may depend upon another. If I were to give you whatever the fix happened to be at the time, it may well break your system more, as I dont have the required knowledge to make that decision. For that reason, we have to follow the release process.
At present, the bug is "Open". Which simply means its not been resolved. There may have been someone look at it. There may have actually been several people look at it. Outside of speaking to every developer to see if they have looked at that particular item, its not possible for me to tell me anything other than what you already know. Its a bug report in our bug tracker and you havent yet got a fix.
Again, Im sorry to hear you believe you are being treated as 'the enemy' here. Its simply not possible for me to provide updates to every bug, interim fixes for every bug, and up to date what has and hasnt been looked at. We have hundreds of items. While I appreciate you are interested in this one, other bugs are of interest to other people too.
I'm just letting you know its not possible to provide interim fixes, and if you do need them, its not worth using a beta. This wasnt a complaint in any way. We're unable to presume your own personal ability, so we do need to ensure people know this information. I can only apologise if you were offended by me providing this.
