Reporting Bugs and Problems
***************************

Bugs and problems with TRAMP are actively worked on by the development
team. Feature requests and suggestions are also more than welcome.

   The TRAMP mailing list is a great place to get information on working
with TRAMP, solving problems and general discussion and advice on topics
relating to the package.

   The  mailing list is at <tramp-devel@mail.freesoftware.fsf.org>.
Messages sent to this address go to all the subscribers. This is _not_
the address to send subscription requests to.

   For help on subscribing to the list, send mail to the administrative
address, <tramp-devel-request@mail.freesoftware.fsf.org>, with the
subject `help'.

   To report a bug in TRAMP, you should execute `M-x tramp-bug'. This
will automatically generate a buffer with the details of your system and
TRAMP version.

   When submitting a bug report, please try to describe in excruciating
detail the steps required to reproduce the problem, the setup of the
remote machine and any special conditions that exist.

   If you can identify a minimal test case that reproduces the problem,
include that with your bug report. This will make it much easier for the
development team to analyze and correct the problem.
