What if a [Done] is not [Done]?

This is an etiquette question.
If the PB team have changed the title of a post to mark it [Done], but in the next version (e.g. PB5.11Beta) you find it is not fixed, what is the correct course of action? Create a new post? Update the existing one but leave [Done] in the title? My concern is that a not-incorporated-fix (or an unsuccessful one) could get over looked entirely.........

Just calm down and wait until Fred responses to that thread.
It is not the first time that happens (and will not be the last one).
Maybe he has (again) just forgotten to include the fix into the newest version.
Thats why he makes beta releases.
Even if he doesn't response ... what of course would be really sad,
but even then you can assume he has read it. ... and it is not that
easy to fix.

I would remove the [DONE] from the title, update the version number in the title, add a new post in the thread explaining the problem has not really been fixed even if it was marked so in version xx.yy and provide a new updated example if needed.
This if the [DONE] was originally intended as Fixed. Sometime they put a [DONE] for other reasons as well.
In that case use your best judgment.

You can remove the [Done] from the topic.

Thanks for the clarification Luis and Fred - I felt awkward about it because I'm 100% sure Fred knows more about PB than I do
