<title>Purpose and Scope of this Guide</title>
<para>
Bugzilla is simply the best piece of bug-tracking software the
world has ever seen. This document is intended to be the
comprehensive guide to the installation, administration,
maintenance, and use of the Bugzilla bug-tracking system.
</para>
<para>
This release of the Bugzilla Guide is the
<emphasis>&bzg-ver;</emphasis> release. It is so named that it
may match the current version of Bugzilla. The numbering
tradition stems from that used for many free software projects,
in which <emphasis>even-numbered</emphasis> point releases (1.2,
1.14, etc.) are considered "stable releases", intended for
public consumption; on the other hand,
<emphasis>odd-numbered</emphasis> point releases (1.3, 2.09,
etc.) are considered unstable <emphasis>development</emphasis>
releases intended for advanced users, systems administrators,
developers, and those who enjoy a lot of pain.
</para>
<para>
Newer revisions of the Bugzilla Guide follow the numbering
conventions of the main-tree Bugzilla releases, available at
<ulink url="&bz;">&bz;</ulink>. Intermediate releases will have
a minor revision number following a period. The current version
of Bugzilla, as of this writing (&bzg-date;) is &bz-ver;; if
something were seriously wrong with that edition of the Guide,
subsequent releases would receive an additional dotted-decimal
digit to indicate the update (&bzg-ver;.1, &bzg-ver;.2, etc.).
Got it? Good.
