6. I know the developers tried your best to maintain lammps. Still I suggest
there should be a more open
and interactive bug reporting feature on the website. Instead of sending
email individually to the authors, people
can report bug online and the status will be shown and known by everyone.
(like debian, drupal projects)
And I think this will also reduce the authors work to response users'
email. They can focus on resolving
the problem. And users do not have to ask similar questions repeatly.
How is this different than the current mail list which is searchable by anyone?
Most of the issues people post are not bugs, but things they don't understand
about LAMMPS.
