Posted this in the Checklist thread but it probably deserves its own bug post as I see people talking about doing it.

Concordance of Research quests (the Lightstone and GLS turn-in quests at the various Gypsies) shouldn't be in game until late July 1999:

Subject: Practice Research Bugged?


Has anyone successfully attempted the new practice research implemented
in yesterdays patch? I did the minor quests, recived the recepie book
and the new book to combine items. So I thought I'd try the simplest
runes before using the rarer components in the harder runes.
Tried Rune 1: Lapiz Lazuli, Bat Wing, Bone Chip. Items fail to combine
in these quantities.
Ah, it mentioned needing a quill and parchment in the book. I buy both
at guild, and try the same. Items fail to combine in these quantities.

So I try the next: Turquoise, Fire Beetle Eye, and a Rusty slashing
weapon. Same fail. Added quill and parchment, still same failure. Tried
many different slashing weapons. All fail.

So is it buggy, and did Verant really add this whole new piece to
research without testing it in the slightest, even to attempt to make
one item? I have trouble believing even Verant would do that...so am I
missing something obvious? Would be interested to hear what kind of
success others have had with this new addition.

Relevant patch message (translated from Japanese):


- Added quests for wizards who do research. Go to North Karana for good attributed races and South Ro for evil attributed races.

I thought that this was already disabled?

Did you actually test this on green beta?

I did the quest yesterday and recieved the Concordance of Research for a greater lightstone xp and faction (South Ro). Also giving her a regular lightstone gets you 1 of the 2 books explaining how to do research plus faction, don't remember xp for that turn in.
So yeah still active.

still works as of a couple hours ago. if you are sitting on a greater lightstone you better go turn it in ASAP. heh. as a side note this will make it so even more people will be pushing into the karanas.
