Subject: Announcing Bugzilla 5 Public Beta!
Hello All,
We are pleased to announce Red Hat's Bugzilla 5 beta [1]! We’re inviting
all of you to participate.
We encourage you to test your current scripts against this new version and
take part in the beta discussions on the Fedora development list [2].
Partners and customers may also use their existing communications channels
to share feedback or questions. We ask that you provide feedback or
questions by Wednesday, May 17th.
Here is a short list of some of the changes in Bugzilla 5:
-
Major improvements in the WebServices interface, including a new
REST-like endpoint, allowing clients to access data using standard HTTP
calls for easy development.
-
The UI has been significantly overhauled for a modern browsing
experience.
-
Performance improvements, including caching improvements to allow faster
access to certain types of data.
-
Red Hat Associates, Customers and Fedora Account System users can now
log in using SAML.
-
The addition of some of the Bayoteers extensions allowing features such
as inline editing of bugs in search results, team management and scrum
tools, etc.
-
Ye Olde diff viewer has been replaced with the modern diff2html diff
viewer
-
Improved, updated documentation including a rewrite using the
reStructuredText format, which allows documentation to be more easily
converted into different formats such as HTML and PDF, etc
The official release date for Bugzilla 5 will be determined based on the
beta feedback. We will communicate to you as the beta progresses.
