Re: Bugzilla read to go live?

Hi,

Looks good. I played with it and came up with lots of nitpicks
though. ;-)

I think the text on bugzilla.gnome.org is confusing:

 This is Bugzilla: the Mozilla bug system. For more information about
 what Bugzilla is and what it can do, see mozilla.org's bug pages.
<bugzilla.gnome.org/bugs.jpg> This is where we put in lots of nifty
 words explaining all about bugzilla. 

How about "This is the GNOME bug tracker. Choose one of the following
tasks:" or the like. Then link to mozilla.org somewhere on the bottom
of the page in fine print. The same confusing text seems to be on
other pages too...

On the bug entry page, "If you think it got it wrong, please tell
Martin Baulig what it should have been" should probably give Martin's
email address, or better some bugzilla maintainer alias.

The two Access dropdowns seem to provide combinations that don't make
sense. e.g. if I say "only bugzilla maintainers" and "only gnome
hackers" do I get the union or the intersection of those groups?

I added a bug: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=40011 If I
try to change status to Assigned then there's an internal server
error.

http://bugzilla.gnome.org/bug_status.html documents an UNCONFIRMED state that 
doesn't seem to be used (my bug went in as NEW, maybe because I
assigned it to myself and have canconfirm permissions?).

The help-with-field links on bug pages, such as
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=40011, go to bug_status.cgi
instead of bug_status.html. e.g. click on Resolution: on the bug page
and you get a 404.

Havoc
