Thanks for reporting the problem with the JDK Bug System (bugs.openjdk.org) requiring login. We noticed this change shortly after we upgraded the site and have been investigating it. I've added your message to our internal report.</div>

<p style="margin-top: 1em; margin-bottom: 1em;">Also affects the main project pages, such as

<p style="margin-top: 1em; margin-bottom: 1em;">Since there has been no response so far on web-discuss, and also apparently no response to another feedback mail I had sent to
<a style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;" class="x_moz-txt-link-abbreviated OWAAutoLink" id="OWA1a443586-0f17-80b7-c4d3-64d367645304" href="mailto:java-bug-submit-form_ww_grp@oracle.com">
java-bug-submit-form_ww_grp@oracle.com</a> 3 weeks ago regarding the new bug reporting form (where feedback was explicitly requested), I am going to include

help@openjdk.org</a> now on CC (hopefully that is ok).</p>
<p style="margin-top: 1em; margin-bottom: 1em;">Also, another issue with the new bug reporting form (<a style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;" data-auth="NotApplicable" class="x_moz-txt-link-freetext OWAAutoLink" id="OWA8d21fcbd-0d4c-a994-c4b9-f7595d3cbb6a" href="https://bugs.java/bugreport/">https://bugs.java/bugreport/</a>):<br>
It seems you do not get the "Update Notification: Bug Report - JDK-..." mail anymore which informs you about the creation of the bug report (unless I made a typo in my mail address when submitting the report)? I can see on
<a style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;" data-auth="NotApplicable" class="x_moz-txt-link-freetext OWAAutoLink" id="OWAfd5b5068-1213-685c-8ea2-d0430eb557d0" href="https://bugs.openjdk.org">
https://bugs.openjdk.org</a> that the report was created a few weeks ago already.</p>
<p style="margin-top: 1em; margin-bottom: 1em;">Sorry in case this missing communication is just due to the holiday season. Though web-discuss seems to be rarely looked at in general (but it seems to be the most appropriate mailing list for this topic).</p>

<p style="margin-top: 1em; margin-bottom: 1em;">Hello,</p>
<p style="margin-top: 1em; margin-bottom: 1em;">it seems since a few weeks or months the JDK Bug System (<a style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;" data-auth="NotApplicable" class="x_moz-txt-link-freetext OWAAutoLink" id="OWAd51a22d2-1758-3f02-abc3-150868e1ef2f" href="https://bugs.openjdk.org/secure/Dashboard.jspa">https://bugs.openjdk.org/secure/Dashboard.jspa</a>)
requires login when searching for issues.</p>
<p style="margin-top: 1em; margin-bottom: 1em;">To reproduce:</p>
<ol start="1">
<li>Open <a data-auth="NotApplicable" class="x_moz-txt-link-freetext OWAAutoLink" id="OWA40e334fd-cbf7-4702-52d4-cb297aa2feb4" href="https://bugs.openjdk.org/secure/Dashboard.jspa">
https://bugs.openjdk.org/secure/Dashboard.jspa</a><br>
(make sure you are not logged in)</li><li>In the top right, enter any text in the search text field, e.g. "test"</li><li>Press Enter to search<br>
(note that the search text field already provides suggestions, ignore those)</li></ol>
<p style="margin-top: 1em; margin-bottom: 1em;">Problem: Instead of opening the results list, it shows the login page:
<a style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;" data-auth="NotApplicable" class="x_moz-txt-link-freetext OWAAutoLink" id="OWA8e090f55-fdc4-996a-32f1-f72aca39ad95" href="https://bugs.openjdk.org/login.jsp?permissionViolation=true">
https://bugs.openjdk.org/login.jsp?permissionViolation=true</a></p>
<p style="margin-top: 1em; margin-bottom: 1em;">This is quite inconvenient for external users who don't have an account, and likely also leads to increased amounts of duplicate bug reports.<br>
If possible, could you please fix this?</p>
<p style="margin-top: 1em; margin-bottom: 1em;">Tested browsers:</p>
<ul>
<li>Firefox 145.0.2 (64-bit)</li><li>Chrome 142.0.7444.176</li></ul>
<p style="margin-top: 1em; margin-bottom: 1em;"><br>
</p>
<p style="margin-top: 1em; margin-bottom: 1em;">Workarounds:</p>
<ul>
<li>Instead of pressing Enter in the text field, click the "View all matching issues" button at the end of the suggestions list</li><li>Open <a data-auth="NotApplicable" class="x_moz-txt-link-freetext OWAAutoLink" id="OWAf03b3206-7fcd-5c33-42e9-d07c77e1b4a7" href="https://bugs.openjdk.org/issues/">
https://bugs.openjdk.org/issues/</a> and perform the search there instead</li></ul>
<p style="margin-top: 1em; margin-bottom: 1em;">But these workarounds might be a bit difficult to find if a user is not that familiar with Jira, or was not aware that searching did not require a login in the past, giving the impression that you cannot search
without account.</p>
<p style="margin-top: 1em; margin-bottom: 1em;"><br>
</p>
<p style="margin-top: 1em; margin-bottom: 1em;">Kind regards</p>
