Well, nuts. I got clever. I actually went to RubyForge - http://rubyforge.org/projects/instiki/ to try to find a bug collector, and found nothing, incredibly enough. I''m not a CS pro, so maybe I don''t know *how* to find it. In any case, I didn''t find it. Starting from instiki.org, I see the "Report a bug" link I had earlier missed. It takes me to a page which says Permission Denied This action requires TICKET_CREATE permission. Apparently I have to plow through Trac''s help resources to see if I can make any sense of this. I followed the links from this page, and that appears to be the case.S Well, guess what - I have severely limited time. When I run into a wall like this I''m finished. I have deadlines in other places. I gone, me and my bug. I simply have limited resources. I regret this, but it''s my reality. I don''t know how to fix this. Thanks for your help. Wish *I* could do more. I tried. Tom C.

Rob, Thank you very much! It looks like you may have solved my problem. I had seen that "How to contribute" link, but thought it was about soliciting monetary contributions - an idea I like but which I cannot offer just now. Now that I understand what it REALLY means, I can go forward. I really do want to put my findings somewhere they might matter, if someone else hasn''t already documented the problem I''m running into. Now I''m wondering why I posted all those problem reports to the list and no one directed me to this link. Leaves me with the feeling that I''m just talking to myself. I hope not. Will check out this new option. Thanks again.
