Although the Bugzilla development team has taken great care to
|
|
ensure that all exploitable bugs have been fixed, security holes surely
|
|
exist in any piece of code. Great care should be taken both in
|
|
the installation and usage of this software. The Bugzilla development
|
|
team members assume no liability for your use of Bugzilla. You have
|
|
the source code, and are responsible for auditing it yourself to ensure
|
|
your security needs are met.

|
|
The latest version of this guide can always be found at <ulink

In addition, there are Bugzilla template localization projects in

They may have translated documentation available. If you would like to

volunteer to translate the Guide into additional languages, please visit the
