New web page for filing a tomcat bug report

[Glenn Nielsen <gl...@voyager.apg.more.net>]

I have created a new web page to help those who feel the need to
file a Tomcat bug report.  The goal in writing this was to reduce
the number of bug reports by encouraging user's to research their
problem before submitting a new bug report.

It can be viewed at:

http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/bugreport.html

Please review it and make suggestions for improvements.

Once it is ready we can replace the link to Bugzilla
on the main Tomcat web page with a link to the above.

I grabbed some of this from the Tomcat 3.3 docs, Thanks Costin and all
the other Tomcat 3.3 contributors.

Once this is in place I want to start working on a General Tomcat FAQ
to address common issues like JVM settings, common web application problems
which look like a Tomcat bug, etc.

Regards,

Glenn

How about add links for a list of opened bug list (both TC3 & 4)?

This one is for TC4:
http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/buglist.cgi?bug_status=UNCONFIRMED&bug_sta
tus=NEW&bug_status=ASSIGNED&bug_status=REOPENED&bug_status=VERIFIED&email1=&
emailtype1=substring&emailassigned_to1=1&email2=&emailtype2=substring&emailr
eporter2=1&bugidtype=include&bug_id=&changedin=&votes=&chfieldfrom=&chfieldt
o=Now&chfieldvalue=&product=Tomcat+4&short_desc=&short_desc_type=allwordssub
str&long_desc=&long_desc_type=allwordssubstr&bug_file_loc=&bug_file_loc_type
=allwordssubstr&keywords=&keywords_type=anywords&field0-0-0=noop&type0-0-0=n
oop&value0-0-0=&cmdtype=doit&order=%27Importance%27

The selection criteria is:
- Status = UNCONFIMED, NEW, ASSIGNED, REOPENED & VERIFIED
- Sort by 'Importance'

For this one, I have extracted your comment from bug 5181 and compiled a
document in xdoc format.  I don't have the copy in my office at the moment
but it's in my iBook at home.  Could you like to review my copy?
