The changelog lists this for 1.42:

8. Fixed - When one player surrenders to another, all objects that change ownership will have their orders cleared.

Is it still happening in the 1.44 release version?

No evidence that he cares or reads emails. Besides, I'm sure that one is already reported. I did just report another bug, for what it's worth:

under v1.44 you can add mines to a fleet. In fact they show up under the left column and will be added to the fleet if you "add all to fleet"

I usually don't get a response (and I'm a beta tester...).

The frequent and extensive changelogs seem like plenty of evidence to me. It wouldn't hurt for Aaron to set up some kind of autoresponder to acknowledge that he has received your e-mail, but otherwise I'd rather see someone work on code rather than compose personal replies to every bug report.

I have the impression that you get a reply from MM if he needs more information about the bug you reported. So no reply might not be a bad sign! At least many bug reports I sent him and got no reply were fixed in the next patch.

Is there an online bug database somewhere that is kept up to date so that we can see if bugs are already reported? It would be useful to set up bug severity/priority. It seems MM just knee-jerks on emails, some emails and not others.
