Hi Michael,

Could you take a look at this bug report? Thanks.

(There are a few more bug reports for ERC in the bug tracker; if you
have the time, could you please take a look at them too? Thanks.)

Forwarding to Giorgos, who will be taking over as ERC maintainer
shortly. Can you pass on the details of how to access ERC-related
bugs in the Emacs bugtracker?

Thanks! I see that trimming the 'unstable' bit from the URL reports
more bugs:

http://emacsbugs.donarmstrong.com/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?which=pkg&data=erc&archive=no

I bookmarked both URIs and will have a look at the open bugs.

My experience with `emacsbugs.donarmstrong.com' is very limited, so if
we also have some sort of HOWTO or mini-guide for the tracker, please
point it me to that and I will read it to get acquainted with how bugs
are handled.
