Can you identify how I will know that the problems is fixed?
Is this something that one has to wait for the next major or minor version upgrade?
Is this something that comes out in patches.
If so are these fixes proactively communicated?
Is there a way for me to get on a list to be informed when this is resolved?
Fixed known issues typically are reported in the Release Notes and KB although some fixed issues will also be posted in the forums by VMware Employees, usually in the primary thread where the issue was first discussed. Because the next major release is in beta VMware developers are probably focusing more on it and a fix may appear in the next major release before a point release of the current GA release. We will just have to wait and see how VMware handles this issue. Also VMware does not typically use patches per se and puts out a core update or the full installer package as an update and if you haven turned off the Updates preference then VMware Fusion should notify when an update is available. Lastly there is no specific list that I know of to be placed on to be notified however if you're tracking the thread I linked in my first reply you should receive an email if you have email notifications turned on in your forum preferences.
