Sounds about right.

I guess it's possible that Microsoft have a copy of them somewhere. But it's 1½ months since that page was updated, and there's still no sign of the replacement for Visual Studio / .NET Framework bugs.

I once reported a bug with a GDI thing and it took three OS releases before it was fixed. I guess it was a low priority and someone got bored and decided to fix it. Or, possibly, an ambitious intern saw the bug report and decided to tackle it.

It looks like they decided to break it all apart by functional area before the areas were ready... It's been a long time since I reported a bug but it certainly looks like it will be harder to find the 'right' team to report it to.

But we have the Feedback Hub, and that's oh so much better.
Or do we?
I know it keeps popping up on my phone whenever I push the wrong button at the wrong time.

after some parts of .net went opensource on github...and the so called new crowd at microsoft
would not even know what Microsoft connect (horribly designed site) would be... better to
close it ...sometimes it not worth fixing bugs when the whole company doesn't know what its
doing...

The GitHub repositories are fine for .NET Core; but where do you report bugs with the full framework?
Also, as I said, there was a vast repository of known bugs and workarounds posted on Connect, which has now vanished without a trace.
And there are still a great number of pages that link to Connect bug reports, which are now useless because those links are broken. And due to the settings on the Connect site, it's not even available in the "wayback machine".

You could email the program managers at Microsoft who are in charge of the framework I guess,and if you are working at a Microsoft partner then you have ways to reach out through the MPN portal, they are more reachable these days since they got way more time doing nothing but hanging out at github. Not sure who in the public cares about bugs which never get fixed expect for security experts and hackers. Well I guess msft when the apple way with security though obscurity.

Noticed a comment in the earlier thread about the fridge being more important then kids...
was a bit bored and as a cyclist so been watching cycle vs car vids on u-tube,
many highly cringe worthy clips, and of course fair share of whose at fault,
but...
and not being sexist...
but noticed nearly always (and regardless of fault):
- when a male car driver knocks down a cyclist, first thing he looks at is if the cyclist is OK,
- when a woman car driver knocks down a cyclist, first thing she looks at is her car.
really, 95% of the time the woman gets out and looks at her car, then freezes, whereas the guys check the cyclist, and often don't even give a damn about where/what their car is doing until they've got the cyclist sorted.
And following suggested links that seems to apply in all accidents, including car vs car/motorbike/bike and even pedestrians, the men nearly always check the other party first, the women almost always check their own car - even after running down pedestrians FFS.

I remember my sister dumping her b/f after they came off his (motor)bike and first thing he did after crawling out the hedge was inspect his bike before even remembering he'd had a passenger on the back.... Priorities, eh?

Probably cos she's terrified of what her husband will say when he finds out she's pranged his car.

Happened to me. A woman tried to overtake me by turning left immediately in front of me as I was going straight on. Then she tried to make out it was my fault because, "well I was indicating". Silly cow.

Sounds like the person in the parking lot who was reversing at about 15mph without looking in her rear-view mirror - a friend and I had to jump out of the way to avoid being hit.
I walked over to her car and explained that she had nearly hit us, her response "I have rear collision detectors and I would have stopped in time".

Just another example of how driving is getting worse with the introduction of modern technology. "I don't need to worry, as the car will take care of everything".

A car salesman was trying to flog me a new car and the selling points - "It has lane departure warning that means if you drift towards the outside of your lane an alarm will sound and if you are at risk of a collision the brakes will automatically apply."
My thoughts - anyone who needs this technology is not safe in a car, if you need to depend on lane departure warnings you should definitely not be awarded a driving license.

And the cyclist is more worried about whether their bike is ok.

A while back an old lady knocked over my parked motorbike doing £700 of damage to it.
She got out of the car, looked at her car and drove off.
Fortunately an eyewitness was present who, outraged at the old lady's behaviour, noted everything down and volunteered as a police witness.
The police quite simply did nothing - Cambridge police, I hasten to add, who struggle at the best of times, probably largely due to under-funding in the UK police force.
