PLEASE fix the Plugin 'Issues' website - it is unusable!
The "issues" component of plugins.jquery.com has been virtually unusable for months. In every browser, the page response is absurdly slow and the CAPTA feature is a mess.
I keep trying to respond to issue postings on my plug-ins, but it can literally take 15 minutes to write 2 sentences! Then when I try to post, I go into CAPTA hell. There appears to be 2 different systems being used, so after you complete the first one, it says you didn't and presents another one - of a different type. Then when you complete that, it tells you it detects an 'attack'.
After I finally fight through all these issues, my response is emailed to me - but it NEVER appears in the issues section, so all issues appear to remain unanswered. I've tried posting the response multiple times, but it never appears.
So it is almost impossible to respond to support/issue postings. Trying to is an exercise in frustration! I thought it would eventually get fixed, but it has been like this for months - it never used to be. I even tried disabling the issue section in the plugin settings since it was unusable, but that does not work either.
I am using Windows Vista and have tried using IE7 and the latest versions of FireFox, Chrome and Safari. Of these, FireFox is the least-slow, but still suffers the other problems.
I am posting this message here because the plugins site does not have its own forum and this issue can only be addressed by the jQuery team.
Thanks in advance for anything that can be done to fix the plug-ins site. Or, if it can't be fixed, allow a way to disable the issues section for my plugins so users would be _forced_ to use the discussion group instead.
