Time for the annual bugzilla statistics!

[Andre Klapper <ak-47 gmx net>]

Heidiho!

Once again time to take a quick look at what's been going on in GNOME
Bugzilla in 2008. Thanks to Olav for running the scripts.

Detailed information can be found at
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/utils/stats-2008/stat-overview.html
Please keep in mind to not draw too many conclusions from these values.
Especially because some of them are obviously wrong. :-P


Some highlights from the main page are:
