			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Today a <a href="http://bugs.adobe.com/jira/browse/SDK-15356" target="_blank">bug</a> that I have been watching was resolved as &#8216;Not a Bug&#8217;.  In the QA team&#8217;s defense, the original bug description was not very clear.  I have commented on the bug explaining why it needed to be reopened.</p>
<p>This situation brings up a valid question.</p>
<p>How do we (the Flex community) effectively help the Flex SDK team in a way that doesn&#8217;t hinder them? Let&#8217;s face it, spamming the inbox of Flex team members isn&#8217;t going to get us anywhere.  </p>
<p>As I was contemplating this situation, I opened up my Google Reader.  It turns out that <a href="http://butterfliesandbugs.wordpress.com/" target="_blank">Joan</a> (a member of the Flex SDK QA team) has a series of posts discussing tips and tricks to using JIRA, along with what we can do to escalate issues that are important.</p>
<p>So for today&#8217;s tip, I&#8217;m going to provide links to these great posts:</p>
