As usual, these lists are far from exhaustive. They don't contain private Connect bugs or non-Connect bugs (which come from many sources: compiler testers, STL maintainers with last names ending in J, other MS teams like Windows and Office, external customers with support contracts, etc.). Also, some public Connect bugs aren't represented here (in particular, /analyze and /ZW bugs).
If you find any more bugs that have eluded us, please continue to report them through Microsoft Connect.
