Under
Bug Reports
Beta Bug Reports
Beta Bug Reports - x64 only
???

It used to be that the donor version was beta - is this still the case? (I see no sign of "beta" in the About of FC: "FreeCommander XE 2016 Build 724 64-bit donor"

"Beta Bug Reports" - if you don't want to test the bug also in 32-bit version
"Beta Bug Reports - x64 only" - if you test the bug also in 32-bit version and you can reproduce it only in 64-bit version

At least I think so, perhaps the forum name is not 100% correct, "FreeCommander XE" is for public versions and "Beta Testing - FreeCommander XE" is mainly for donor versions. There are also public beta versions and donor non-beta, then it's confusing.

Perhaps it would be better to have the FC XE public forum and FC XE donor forum.

So "Bug Reports" is strictly for the public 32-bit version? Well, there are posts there for donor (beta?) versions as well.
Beta Testing - FreeCommander XE" is mainly for donor versions
Mainly? What are the exceptions?
There are also public beta versions and donor non-beta, then it's confusing.
No kidding? So we have
  • Public
  • Public beta
  • Doner
  • Doner beta
I am a donor, but on the donor download site there is no beta version.
Perhaps it would be better to have the FC XE public forum and FC XE donor forum.
Something like that, yes, if it even matters on the admin side of this forum. Is this forum categorization for the convenience of forum users or developers or both or neither?
What can be done to improve the clarity? More would be greatly appreciated!
