Notes:

Bug #1578 (Errors Approving Workflow in the frontend) was submitted by DCITA on 18th August 2006 but was marked as Can Not Replicate after a developer could not reproduce the issue in versions since version 3.8.4 (the reported version).

Bug #1579 (Unordered list - list items not being enclosed by ending </li> tag) was submitted by Edward Braddock on 18th August 2006 but was marked as not being a bug because the issue relates to the handling of code by browsers' rich text controls, which is outside the control of MySource Matrix. It is recommended that HTML Tidy be installed and enabled to clean such code.

Bug #1581 (MAPS is no longer supported - shouldn't we remove it?) was submitted by Tom Barrett but was marked as not being a bug. MAPS will not be removed from the system.

Bug #1583 (What's New Assets won't list) was submitted by Karl Davidson but was marked as Can Not Replicate after two people were unable to replicate the bug in the current branch versions.

Bug #1587 (User Restrictions and Nested Groups) was submitted by Mark White but was marked as not being a bug. The crux of the report - asking for a method for implementing multiple IP restrictions - is handled by an updated User IP condition in version 3.10.0 and higher. This will not be implemented in version 3.8.x.

Bug #1592 (upgrade_data_dirs.php doesn't remap some design area files) was submitted by Avi Miller but was marked as a duplicate of bug #1591 (upgrade_data_dirs.php doesn't work on Oracle) also submitted by Avi, which was fixed (also fixing bug #1592 in the process). The bug has been closed.

Bug #1593 (Running HIPOs on Squiz Server with Oracle generates notices/warnings) was submitted by Avi Miller but was marked as Can Not Replicate after he could not reproduce the problem on a freshly checked-out 3.11.0 Oracle-based system.

Bug #1596 (Massive Crazy Security Key) was submitted by James Hunter but was marked as not being a bug as the report is not suitable for the bug tracker.
