Users and Dev's Alike, |

With the past release of bugzilla 2.20, it is once again time to upgrade |
| 4 |
our bugzilla (http://bugs.gentoo.org) to the latest release. I have been |
| 5 |
working on getting our test installation (http://bugstest.gentoo.org) up |
| 6 |
to standards of our current bugzilla, implementing patches and other |
| 7 |
customizations to it. Now I need the general population to login, test |
| 8 |
it, and alert me of any show stopping issues. |
| 9 |
|
| 10 |
To cut down on the barrage of email that filing, moving, and reassigning |
| 11 |
bugs causes, I have SHUT OFF email on our test installation of bugs. |
| 12 |
This is to alleviate all our inboxes from filling up with superfluous |
| 13 |
emails that come from testing. |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
Be mindful that it is a TEST DATABASE and it will have NO EFFECT on our |
| 16 |
production bugs.g.o installation. It is an old snapshot of our bugs.g.o |
| 17 |
database from some months ago, so very new accounts will not be present. |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
I have setup a metabug http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=99714 to |
| 20 |
assist in my keeping track of issues related to the new install. Please |
| 21 |
only post abnormalities to this bug. I will not be implementing any new |
| 22 |
features at the current time. |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
Once I see a sufficient amount of success stories, I will announce |
| 25 |
downtime procedures for bugzilla, at which time we can all take a drink |
| 26 |
of our preferred beverage while I do the upgrade. |
| 27 |
|
| 28 |
Thanks for all the support. |

Cheers, |
