Subject: UnitInParty Broken on PARTY_MEMBERS_CHANGED
   Where do I post bugs with the WoW API? Who do I tell so they can fix it?

For instance, when PARTY_MEMBERS_CHANGED event is generated. Lets say you have 3 people in your group. You invite a 4th. The event is generated, you catch it in an event handler, while in the event handler you call UnitInParty("player"), it returns false. If you call GetNumPartyMembers() it returns zero. For some reason, whenever that even is generated it physically removes the player from the party...then I guess puts them back in.

Why is this bug a problem? Say I have an Assist Frame I want to hide out of party. Because of how buggered this is, I can't tell when a person is in a party or not.

So who do I send this too? How can I tell the proper people have even read this let alone sent it to the person in charge of the API? All these forums are always drowned with random junk posts, is there any place of substance where I can report this problem?

   I'm fixing it so it only sends it once, after all party member changes were complete.
It made sense before, since the game actually does reassemble the party when it changes, so you'd have: 1. empty party .. 2. add member, get lots of unit events, get party changed event .. 3. repeat until the whole party is in.
Now with 1.7, you don't get all those unit events, so getting a single party changed message is possible, and a whole lot simpler.
