Bugzilla 3.2 needs release notes. This means finding all the bugs that currently have the "relnotes" keyword, and writing appropriate release notes for them, and also writing up the other sections as needed (see the Bugzilla 3.0 release notes). Some bugs might have fallen through the cracks and not been marked as "relnote", so I also always like to check through the whole list of bonsai changes for the release to see if anything catches my eye, after I do all the "relnote" stuff.

Here's what I have so far--just the basic outline for what will be the 3.2 release notes. What's important that I learned here is that when you add a new version, you have to copy the raw HTML of the "requirements" tables and paste them into the section for the previous release notes, because they're getting auto-generated and aren't correct anymore for the modern release. You also have to update the BLOCK db_req section to generate the right <a name> tag.

This contains relnotes for all the new features, although I haven't checked this file at all yet to see if it works or if there are typos or anything.

Okay, I've spell-checked and tested this, and updated it to add some last-minute additions.

(In reply to comment #7) > To make sure I understand correctly, "any of the bugs" as in "all the bugs"? > Because if there is at least one bug for which you don't have editbugs privs, > then you cannot do mass-changes. I thought we changed it so that if you have product-specific editbugs, you can edit just the bugs that you can edit? Otherwise that's more of a bug fix than a feature. > This is unfortunate, but the URL is Bug.html#add_comment_EXPERIMENTAL. No idea > why EXPERIMENTAL is appended to the method name. Because it's part of the =item. We should probably move those below the method name. > Email::MIME was not listed by checksetup.pl in 3.0, but has been added later in > 3.0.x. Not sure how you want to display this (maybe with an asterisk?). Well, it always required it. You're right that the explicit version check was added later. I'm not worried about it. We'll just say that the 3.2 requirements are new since 3.0.5 or something like that. > Otherwise looks great! Thanks!
