Hi Folks,
While working on PageStream for Macintosh, I realized it was time to get
bug tracking integrated into the PageStream website. With the heatwave
going on around here, and no air conditioning, it seemed like a good
time to take a break from the intense and work on a small diversion. Did
a mention it was hot here ?!

So I have a working system up right now. _Nothing_ entered into it right
now will stay. I am going to reset the system once everyone has a chance
to play with it and provide some feedback. For those interested in
looking, a little background to help you eval the new system. Very few
folks use the existing bugzilla. Even I hate to use it. Mostly because no
one else does. I'm too lazy to enter everyone's report, and it is hard
to juggle two "lists".

So the bug tracking system should be easy, but useful. Same account as
pagestream.org. Simple to create, simple comments. Simple! But track
everything we need to track.

The only thing I can think that the new system needs is Prev/Next
buttons when you are viewing a specific bug, and eventually I want to
take and link to pages in the documentation system based on keywords
entered. Not 100% sure how
that would work, but something like do keyword search based on each item
in the keywords field and let you "add"/"remove" the resulting items
from the list. Would just have to tweak it until I got what I wanted.
Then the bug would list relevant documentation pages (hotlinked of
course) and the documentation pages would have hotlinked lists of
relevant bugs.

I think the system should work as it is right now and I can tweak it as
time goes. Let me know if I missed something important, if it makes
sense, can any terms be simplified etc. The link is
www.pagestream.org/showbugs.php.

Then I am going to try and go through all the bugzilla bugs and either
fix them or at least copy them over.

Remember, anything you enter right now will be deleted when testing is
done so don't get to worried about what you enter!
