I'm pretty sure bug #1236 isn't an issue anymore, since the root cause (bug #1324) was fixed.

P.S. If you don't get this note, let me know and I'll write you another.
It's amazing how dwarves can make a stack of bones completely waterproof and magmaproof.
It's amazing how they can make an entire floodgate out of the bones of 2 cats.

Is the pathing failure for sieges with leaders on flying mounts in there? (sorry, can't see bugtracker from work)

In a fat-fingered moment while setting up another military squad I accidentally created a captain of the guard rather than a militia captain.  His squad of near-legendary hammerdwarves equipped with high quality silver hammers then took it upon themselves to dispense justice to all the mandate breakers in the fortress.  It was quite messy.

And #2922 is not, in fact, a bug.

@Footjob, you can microwave most grains I've tried pretty easily through the microwave, even if they aren't packaged for it.

Blunt weapons are the pits for me.  They should be completely smashing the faces of the opposition; like in Adventure Mode.  Instead they're near worthless.

OK, I have to reload the save.
There was a bit of a problem regarding flashfreezing, a ballistae, and a barrel of dwarven ale. Gonna fix it up.

What about the large gem and gem furniture and item artifacts that can't be stock-piled.

I'm not sure on the code, but I know it was in the last version.

Bug #5097 Vanishing text in TrueType is truly one of the most annoying things in the latest couple of versions, in my opinion.  I hope more people vote for that bug, so they at least attempt a fix with the next release.

The Blood/death dust glitch is one of the biggest problems for me.  Even with cheat programs and a dwarf shower, it is nearly impossible to get rid of all instances of the particles off of every single dwarf and every space.  Just one instance of death dust can spread through your entire fort killing everyone.

I'd have to say the lack of armor shops in adventure mode.
I kinda wish it might throw realism to the wind and slowly ramp up with the experience of the player. So you can't just get crazy good armor right away.

Actually, wait.. the good armor would be expensive.. so I guess it balances out.

It is a new bug, but is very annoying: streams and brooks getting contaminated with stagnant water from nearby pools.

Ohgod, these two, too.
Does the bugtracker have a method to "vote" for specific issues like most JIRAs have. Or is it just in this thread?

I'll go with the stagnant rivers bug too.  Very annoying.
