He can't see the closed/assigned issues and the comments on the issues? My bad.
Why all the animosity? Spread the love!
Your pre-poster is right - I signed up to github just to post this, so I'm not exactly an experienced user. Even with closed bug reports, it could be that the response on github is a lot slower than on the forum, so I was just asking to know where I should rather post in the future. I plan to stick around for a while.
