It is perfectly common to forget listing fixes. Major or Minor. We do it all the time. Actually remembering to document fixes is a lucky event

To my knowledge it's never happened for any of the major companies where I've worked. Every bug is first tested for confirmation on being reproduced, then verified by another department which enters details into a database, then categorized in order of importance, then verified again by the QA department, then passed to a developer as a work task, then tested by QA again before finally being fixed. I realize Illwinter doesn't have these stages in place so maybe it is common for your team.

Sometimes I have the update page up and ready, but most of the time I forget about it entirely. Then it suddenly pops up in my mind and I update whatever I can remember having done the last couple of hours or days. Quite unreliable.

Someone in the community will eventually run some dome testing and we'll eventually know whether the dome issue was fixed. Let us know if there's anything we can do to help.

Sure, if you're passed a list of fixes to make and you're being paid (or reviewed, etc) based on that list, you're going to make sure every thing is checked off.

All of these stages are in place because, when you let coders work on their own, they just make it work. They document little to nothing, usually as an afterthought, certainly not every stage of they way.

I generally have little idea exactly what I've done when I've been coding for a bit. I just know I've done some good stuff. So I completely understand what KO means.
