> 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.

|
|
> This release of the Bugzilla Guide is the
|
|
<EM
|
|
>2.16</EM
|
|
> 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 <EM
|
|
>even-numbered</EM
|
|
> point releases (1.2,
|
|
1.14, etc.) are considered "stable releases", intended for
|
|
public consumption; on the other hand,
|
|
<EM
|
|
>odd-numbered</EM
|
|
> point releases (1.3, 2.09,
|
|
etc.) are considered unstable <EM
|
|
>development</EM
|
|
>
|
|
releases intended for advanced users, systems administrators,
|
|
developers, and those who enjoy a lot of pain.
|
|
</P
|
|
><P
|
|
> Newer revisions of the Bugzilla Guide follow the numbering
|
|
conventions of the main-tree Bugzilla releases, available at
|
|
<A
|
|
HREF="http://www.bugzilla.org/"
|
|
TARGET="_top"
|
|
>http://www.bugzilla.org/</A
|
|
>. Intermediate releases will have
|
|
a minor revision number following a period. The current version
|
|
of Bugzilla, as of this writing (April 2nd, 2002) is 2.16; if
|
|
something were seriously wrong with that edition of the Guide,
|
|
subsequent releases would receive an additional dotted-decimal
|
|
digit to indicate the update (2.16.1, 2.16.2, etc.).
|
|
Got it? Good.
