Hey All, |
2 |
|
3 |
The upgrade for bugs.gentoo.org went exactly as I had planned for. |
4 |
Completed in under 20 minutes, which included this email. I've upgraded |
5 |
our Bugzilla from the old 2.18rc2 to 2.18.1. This fixes more security |
6 |
and code than I can even begin to mention. I have cleaned out a lot of |
7 |
the code and added in some nice features. |
8 |
|
9 |
Those nice features I'd like to higlight: |
10 |
|
11 |
(1) In the bug list, enhancements are colored green, while critical and |
12 |
blocker bugs are still colored red. This should help in picking out the |
13 |
enhancement bugs. |
14 |
(2) Spam-Spider avoidance measures. When not logged in to the bugzilla |
15 |
system, all reporters and commenters show up just as names, there are NO |
16 |
email addresses. When logged in, one can see names and email addresses. |
17 |
This should help stump spam spiders which parse web pages looking for |
18 |
name@××××××.org |
19 |
(3) I have cleaned up the 'useful links' and footer section. Your logged |
20 |
in name, and log out link is now found left justified under the bugzilla |
21 |
version. As opposed to all the way on the right and as 'regular' text. |
22 |
(4) Comments now have [reply] links where clicking, will append the |
23 |
reply into the 'Additional Comments' textbox where one can easily |
24 |
comment on earlier replies. |
25 |
(5) Strikeouts now work for bugs with closed-like resolutions. Allows a |
26 |
user to more quickly tell the status of a resolved bug. |
27 |
|
28 |
Anything else I've forgotten, I will happily take full credit for. I |
29 |
would also like to thank the numerous bugzilla developers over in |
30 |
irc.mozilla.org in #mozwebtools. They were endlessly patient with my |
31 |
questions and I am endlessly greatful. |
32 |
|
33 |
I want to thank all those who use our bugzilla system for making Gentoo |
34 |
Linux the great distribution it is. |
35 |
|
36 |
Regards, |
