[ANNOUNCEMENT] Apache OOo Bugzilla has NL Projects and Native Language Reports

["Dennis E. Hamilton" <or...@msn.com>]

SUMMARY

1. The OpenOffice.org Bugzilla Issue Tracker at <http://openoffice.org/bugzilla/> is now Read-Only.  New bugs cannot be entered.  Existing issues can be reviewed.  Existing issues cannot be modified or updated.

2. The complete Buzilla Issue Tracker is now move to the Apache OOo Bugzilla <http://issues.apache.org/ooo/>.  It is publicly readable.  Anyone can request a new account in order to be able to report issues.

3. If you ALREADY HAVE AN ACCOUNT on the OpenOffice.org Bugzilla, you can reactivate your account at the Apache OOo Bugzilla.


REACTIVATING YOUR ACCOUNT

4. Current passwords were de-activated in the transfer of the Issue Tracker repository to Apache.  If you had an account with Login ID: "<id>", that account still exists with Login ID: "<id>@openoffice.org".  If you had a Login ID: "<e-mail>" that account still exists.

5. To reactivate your account, go to the <http://issues.apache.org/ooo/> web page.

6. In the banner at the top of the page, click "Forgot Password".

7. In the new banner, enter your Login e-mail Id at the Login: prompt.  If you used an e-mail address before, enter it now.  If you used an user-name, "<user>" before, now enter "<user>@openoffice.org".  (Replace <user> with the actual user-name.)

8. Click "Reset Password"

9. If the e-mail is for a known account, a password reset message will be sent to that e-mail address.  When it arrives, follow the instructions in that message and specify a new password.  

10. Then Log In with the same e-mail to use the issue tracker to do more than look.  You can now use the "Preferences" link on the page banners to make other adjustments.


WHY REACTIVATE THIS WAY?

10. When your account is reactivated, all bug reports in which you are a contributor will have the link from your User ID restored.  You will now receive appropriate notifications.  You can amend those issues by the same User ID.

11. In addition, when you are logged in, the "My Bugs" link at the top and bottom bars of pages will be available.


PLEASE DO THIS FIRST

12. Please use the "My Bugs" list to verify that any issues you reported previously have been preserved correctly.

13. If there is a problem in any of the bug reports, the best way to let the Apache OOo Project know is to send a message to 
<oo...@incubator.apache.org>. 
 
Please include the Issue Number and any other important details in your message.

If there is a problem with the functioning of the Apache OOo Bugzilla itself, you can also use the bugzilla-admin email address given in the bottom-of-page banner.
