#3 Truncation Bug
When typing in a summary for a development team or a
news article, the contents of the summary are
truncated. I have not determined the exact length, but it
is fairly obvious that it is not the full body of the
message.
For more information, view the Infinity Complex
Summary. As you can see, the summary is incomplete.
I am not certain as to where this bug carries over either.

this bug is NOT necessarily to be fixed before immediate
release.
haven't looked into the code yet about this issue, but off
the top of my head, the only possible reasons I can think of
for this ever happening are:
exceeding the amount of content that can be submitted in a POST
exceeding the Java String length
exceeding the MySQL text length
those are the only possible "bottlenecks" that come to mind.
If there are others that I've failed to mention, feel free
to mention:)

Event descriptions are also getting truncated. See the
description for the first upcoming GA.

The events description was truncated to exactly 128 characters.
If there's something cooky with the MySQL data field, then
you might want to check this page:
http://www.mysql.com/doc/n/o/node_369.html (storage
requirements for text types).

Yep, I'm aware of MySQL storage requirements.
As for dev teams and events: I hadn't originally forseen the
need for such lengthy entries, so I made those fields
VARCHAR in the database. They have now been changed to TEXT.
However, NewsArticle.Abstract and NewsArticle.Body have both
been TEXT for a while now, so I can't say that I've fixed
the bug yet. I'd appreciate it if you guys could do some
more testing.
In the meantime, if that doesn't work, please just see what
you can do to keep the entries short.

This is fixed as far as event descriptions go. I was able to
put in a longer description. Cool.
