[OWW-Discuss] We have no way to let folks know there's a place to enter bugs...

Hey Bill,

If you want to continue using that page, then put a link to it on the  
toolbar on the front page called 'Report a Bug'.  However this limits  
bug reports to OWW users (probably the majority of people who will  
find bugs), but I bet other non-members will find bugs too.  In that  
case a mailing list would allow everyone to submit bugs, and we've had  
great success with the contact list I think.  Is it easy to inject a  
mailing list into a page?

Cheers,

J
