With Rev having hundreds of bugs to go through, anyone serious about
getting their bug fixed would be wise to create:

1) a clear explanation of the bug
2) a recipe for replcating it
3) if possible, a demo stack showing it

Furthermore, those who wish their bugs fixed can also do a bit of
research by contacting other developers here to confirm the bug before
posting it.

Typically, when I discover a bug in Rev, I try first to break it down
into it's simplest components and try and create the most
straightforward and basic recipe for repeating it. Then I create a
simple bug demo stack, post it online and ask others to verify it.
Once verified, I then post the bug, with the stack, to bugzilla. I
have found this methodology has enabled most all of my reported bugs
to be fixed in a very timely matter.
